Try Settings - Backup and restore then choose Settings reset, If that doesn't work then try PCC to run a repair if you have already tried PCC then try using SEUS or SUS found here http://www.sonymobile.com/global-en/tools/update-service/

backup everything on a PC (music, pictures, videos, etc) then reset the phone 

Settings > storage > Clear internal storage 

then 

turn off your phone > press and hold power & volume up for 10 seconds, until the phone vibrate 3 times, connect your phone to a wall charger and let it charge, it will take several minutes to turn back on

You can also try 

Settings > apps > all > camera > clear everything > restart your phone > check again 

If this doesn't work then follow my above suggestions

I have the same problem on Xperia P.: http://talk.sonymobile.com/t5/Xperia-P/Error-Camera-not-available-after-update-to-6-2-A-1-100/m-p/33...

A week ago i've sent my phone to Sony Repair Center and today it is back.

On the 'repair report' I've got ONLY  'Software Update' (earlier I had 6.2.A.1.100 and now it's also 6.2.A.1.100) and of course problem still persists :smileysad:

Sony what can we (or you) do to fix it?????

Few days ago I've sent my handset to Repair Center again.

On 'WWW repair status' I can see: replace motherboard.

I hope that will fix my problems with Xperia P Slightly_smiling_Face

I have found a (dummy) answer!

just goto Settings > Apps > All

and disable Xperia camera add-ons

My camera is OK after that!
