Did you see my later post, with attachment, and comment about HDR? With the latest Camera app, the HDR function seems to be the key factor. According to my recent tests, if there is any camera shake (this reduces the contrast transitions), the image will register. If focussed and stale, then not. So it seems as if it is regularly patterned, high contrast scenes that HDR chokes on. What now is different with Camera v. 3.0.0.604 is that the issue does not persist after disabling HDR, so good! Yes, I will file a bug, but later... Corrupt image file available on request until then.
