Thanks. I have read elsewhere that there's no night mode. Is true ?

Franzfume No, it has a night mode. If you are missing functionalities, there is also the possibility to install Google Camera via Aurora Store. But if you do that I would suggest to not grant network/internet rights to the google camera. There will appear a checkbox when you install it where you can uncheck.

Here's an excerpt from the link in my previous message:

GrapheneOS includes our own modern camera app focused on privacy and security. It includes modes for capturing images, videos and QR / barcode scanning along with additional modes based on CameraX vendor extensions (Portrait, HDR, Night, Face Retouch and Auto) on devices where they're available (Pixels currently only have support for Night mode).

Technically, that WAS true when what you read was written. GrapheneOS camera depends on some upstream (Google) modules (CameraX) to implement advanced features, and they've been sluggish bringing these special features into CameraX.

I actually use both GrapheneOS camera as well as GCam. I prefer GrapheneOS camera, but occasionally benefit from some feature that doesn't work in it. Just disable network in GCam and it should be pretty safe from spying. Note that you do NOT need to install gservices for gcam to work. For me, that would be a deal breaker.
