Xiaomi 17 Ultra - Camera Issue. Ultrawide lens goes black & screen flickers on macro/close-up

​Hey everyone, ​I just got my Xiaomi 17 Ultra, and unfortunately, on just my second day of using it, I’ve run into a really frustrating camera bug/hardware issue. ​Here is what’s happening: ​Ultrawide Lens (0.6x): Whenever I switch to 0.6x, the screen goes almost completely black. It’s barely capturing any light or image at all. ​Main/Telephoto Lenses: The other lenses seem to work fine, but there's another catch. Whenever I bring an object close to the camera (trying to focus on something nearby), the screen starts flickering intensely. ​I’ve tried restarting the phone and clearing the camera app cache, but nothing changed. Is anyone else experiencing this with their 17 Ultra? Do you think this is a widespread software bug with the new launch, or did I just get a defective unit? ​Any advice or feedback would be highly appreciated. Thanks!
