The problem is the camera stack takes some time to load and even longer to adjust exposure, white balance, etc,  for the best user experience, we load it, but don't start acquiring media immediately. We find that when we do it this way, the white balance and exposure is already settled, and the transition in the UI is smooth.
 
You are technically correct though, if the problem was just the dot, Unloaded would be fine. I'm just trying to have my cake and eat it too.

Subject: Re: [Interest] iOS 14 little green dot
The indicator is meant to tell if an app is using the camera, it appears you are in fact using it ("In our app, we start the Qt camera stack") so the green dot showing is normal.
Can't you delay the Camera instantiation until you actually need it? If you can't, have you tried setting the cameraState to Camera.UnloadedState?

I filed https://bugreports.qt.io/browse/QTBUG-87296
but I'm wondering what other people's experiences are?

iOS 14 displays a dot when "recording" though this seems to be activated when the camera stack is loaded with Qt, and not when we are actually capturing multimedia.
