Same Issue here on Simulator.
Pixel 2 API 26 Android 8.0.0

[richardkarsten]

Issue solved by using react-native-camera": "1.0.3" and changing compile 'com.android.support:exifinterface:25.+' to compiling 'com.android.support:exifinterface:27.+' und reinstalling node_modules.

Looked in my git. I downgraded from 1.0.3 to 1.0.1 for some weird reason...

Can we close it then?

Always post issues after testing on the latest release, if possible.
