[Q] i997 Camera Pink Spot - Samsung Infuse 4G

My infuse 4g, camera photo showing the middle of a slight pink, do not know why, the friend know the solution

Yeah i film that saaweeet pink spot to..but i will never post it to youtube or whoever..lol.....i am good with this cam.one day it will be able to xray you and give us all cancer like our t.s.a.

Most phone cams have have this problem due to the very short optical path and the type of infrared filter used. Usually, they are calibrated for daylight. So, if you have a significant problem under daylight, I think your camera was not calibrated properly. With indoor lighting, it is to be expected.

[Q] Problem with Camera? Blue ring.

When I start the camera I get this blue ring in the center of the picture, if I take a picture it will show in the picture as well. Anyone else having this issue?
Is it a sharp blue ring, generated by software, or some kind of artifact like a light leak? Do both cameras have it? Are you using the default camera application? Can you post one of the pictures?

I guess I am the only one with this problem. I updated the firmware yesterday but it's still there, as you can see just the blue or purple ring in the center.
Is that on the shots with the other camera too?
Is it on all the shots?
If not, is there some unusual lighting for that shot?
I ask the last because as a photo guy, that looks like the type of thing that you see with internal reflections with the IR filter over the CCD under some lighting conditions, e.g. an incandescent light just out of the frame at the right angle for that shot. Again, is it on all the shots? Again, is it on the shots with the other camera too? If it is on all the shots you might have a problem, it does look like an artifact.
What you're looking at is refraction caused by light hitting from an angle (like lens flare) and bouncing around on the inside and hitting back at the inside of the glass and the glass is now acting as a backdrop. Just a wild guess. Best thing to try is to block the lens to kill the light completely. Do you still see the blue ring? If so, then it's most likely the CCD sensor.

It's on all shots and only with the back facing camera. it moves when the camera is focusing.

If it is on all the shots, you have a problem unfortunately. I just tested with mine, and you can get a very fierce IR internal reflection with a light source just out of the frame, but it isn't on all the shots of course. (see below)
Bit of a long shot, but if it moves with focusing, it might be some kind of internal light leak from the backlight. Maybe they forgot to install a little baffle or something. Turn the backlight brightness all the way down and see if that reduces it.

Purple veil in photos (mostly outside)

Hello all,
since a couple of days i own a HTC One X and i really like it.
What i noticed when using the camera, when i am outside i always get a purple veil, when changing the AWB it gets green.
pic-upload.de/view-14166734/2012-05-12-19.24.20.jpg.html
magezinepublishing.com/equipment/images/equipment/One-X-4692/large/HTC-One-X-trees-IMAG0070_1340963256.jpg
Now i want to know, has anyone else experienced this? (i have seen lots of pictures with this purple veil even from professional testers)
Is this generally on the HOX or is it a failure in a couple of models?
I read "purple vein" and had to come in here to look.
I was expecting something else...
This is what happens when bright light shines onto the camera lens.
Worsened when the camera sensor is overloaded with light.
It happens on any camera but it's pretty bad on this camera.
Try to block bright light sources with your hand, or better yet, avoid shooting into the light.

bought xperia z5, defected lens? xperia z5 users please help!

Greetings guys, ive just bought the Xperia Z5 but for some reason there semms to be a problem with the lens, i am here to ask you if you can confirm this issue with your phone, i took a snapshot of my monitor and ive found out that the middle of the picture is of crispy clear quality, but as soon as i move a little to the left on the bottom part of the screen i find a blurr and if i move even further to the left the blurr is gone.
Is this normal? is there any hidden plastic stickers glued on the camera lens that i should remove?
Please take a minute to look at my pictures to help me understand if im missing something or it is really a defect unit, my version is REV2, android updated to latest firmware and camera settings cleared.
Both 20mp and 8mp pictures have this problem visible, due file size limitation ill only post the 8mp one with red arrows and text showing exactly where the blurr is:
8mp

EDIT: After the phone swap, the blurry picture is gone, now the image is crystal clear without any problems whatsoever:

Contact Support
Just have a conversation with Sony Xperia Support center. They would be in better position to answer your queries.

Xperia support might say "we need to take a look" but i dont want to send it to repair as if its defective i can just go to store and swap for a new one.
Please guys, i beg you to take a moment to relook at the photo, this time i added some arrows explaining the issue to be quicker and easier for you to see what im talking about and compare with yours.

Its not that the left side is blurred, it starts ok then blurrs then goes ok again.
Sorry, but the test doesn't prove anything. Probably unstable image from screen refresh and being hand-held. Try it with a real image - not a monitor - and set it on holder or tripod of some kind. Also don't zoom in so close... cameras have a minimum focal length. My initial impression is that it's not a problem with the Z5.
this is a flat TFT LCD DVI monitor, refresh rate doesnt work as you think they do on digital monitors with digital connections, only the area needing refreshing is actually refreshed rather than the entire screen like a CRT, and if my hands were shaking it was the entire picture that was going to be blurred and not just a tiny portion of the center picture, i also took several photos and the blurred area is exactly in the same spot no matter where i do it.
I just wanted to know if that blurry spot was normal on all phones but this does not semm to be true so ill have to replace mine today.

You need to take a landscape photo with focus mode set to infinty or touch to focus and touch the sky for a proper image to view if your camera lenses are decentered, has micro particles on the sensor lenses and/or lens cover is not 100% flat and clear. Could be any of those reasons, none or a mix. If you haven't dropped your phone or in any way damaged it then and have spots of bluriness then it might be factory faulty, either lenses, cover lens or a mix.
Though by looking at your photo I would doubt the lenses are decentered as it appears as soft spots in random places around focus place and doesn't look like decentered lens(es) as there is no "multi-step" ghosting. I would think the cover lens is warped or have spots, dirt smudging or on the sensor lens. But do try the above first. Remember to put the phone on something stable as you dont want any vibrations for test photos.

Sigh... I'm not going to get into an LCD display discussion. Try a real image with text like a book or a piece of paper. Don't get too close while taking the pic. Set the phone on a stable surface and use the self-timer. We're trying to diagnose the camera, not your monitor.

FYI, why it's not a good idea to use an LCD monitor to test a camera: PWM. Yes, LCDs can cause flicker, banding, distortion. That's not to mention flicker induced by room lighting on the monitor. So in summary, please do not use a monitor to test a camera.

I can see the wording of "how powerful" is blur. The word below it of "certain" also blur, as well as below it of "straightened out".
Both edge of left and right is also blur.
But still better you test with others object for example a wording from book/paper not the monitor.
Great news guys! swapped my phone at the store for a new one and here are the new results
http://postimg.org/image/fc6v40yvd/full/
Blurr free, YESS!! im so happy with my new phone now! With the old phone when i got at the store I even snapped a book text instead of a monitor text (taking into account what you guys tought about the monitor) to prove them that it was the lens fault and not just a bad photo and they seen the blurr exactly in the same spot of the camera lens no matter how many photos i took.
I came from samsung galaxy s6 very dissapointed that my phone had isocell instead of the sony imx240, isocell sensor (same of the galaxy s5) has way worse edge blurr than this phone and the details are soft all across the board, the only advantage of the isocell is in low light because of its OIS, but even then the colors are washed out and black is tinted as purple with iso ver 400, noise is visible more with xperia z5 than with isocell but the xperia z5 has much more sharp image and details in daylight come much clearer, overall i like this phone alot more than the galaxy s6.
Thank you all for your time guys, im a happy owner now and i when i get the chance ill do my best to help you with what info i can for the attention paid to my cry for help.
Cheers.
Sigh... i spoke too soon, this new phone has 6 dead pixels, what on earth is going on with Sony?
I guess I'm lucky then, I don't notice any blur in my pictures, or what do you guys think? https://goo.gl/photos/DneNpL8KVQtobykc7

S8+ Camera - should it behave like this?

Hey everyone,
I'm just trying to figure out if my S8+'s camera is working the way it should. I am transitioning from an S6 which was super-sharp at the cost of also being noisy sometimes. I do love my S8+, but will you have a look at these samples? All in AUTO mode. Please make sure you zoom in.

So in the first picture, the church is in focus which is great. But look at the rest of the image... The white building on the left, the 'BUS' inscription on the left bus lane... It looks terrible. And what's even more confusing, the closest part of the crosswalk seems to be in focus as well.
The second one has the left bus lane in focus, that was intended. And I am very pleased with the sharpness of the crosswalk this time, but look at the rest of the picture. Everything is blurry! The street, the buildings, the church.
I have another set for comparison. This time, from the other side of the church

I focused on the horse statue in the first picture and it is just right I would say. But look at the second one...
I focused on a random point, on the church, for the second picture. See how blurry the horse statue became? And the part of the church vertically inline with the statue seems blurry as well.
What do you think? These were like the perfect shooting conditions. The camera chose shutter speeds like 1/3000s which should eliminate any camera shaking I guess (assuming that's not handled well by the OIS).
As a side-note, I also tried an indoor shot (with the lights turned on) to capture a flower bouquet. The camera chose 1/11s shutter and I was not able to get the shot right (all came out blurry) until I used vocal commands. Presumably pressing the on-screen button was causing a shake that couldn't be compensated by OIS. Is that expected, really?
Thanks, looking forward to see others' thoughts.
Looks like a misplaced lens. Sony smartphone users are getting the same issues with almost every model. Better to exchange it, I think.
Thanks for your reply.
Shouldn't always behave the same if it's a misplaced lens? I mean, I once had a lens that had this issue and it was more noticeable at specific apertures. But all the time, not just in some photos. These were all taken at the same aperture I believe.
I'm convinced, that this is the normal behaviour of the S8's camera.
The S6 has got a 1/2,6" sensor and a f/1.9 aperture.
The S8 has got a 1/2,5" sensor and a f/1.7 aperture.
Either a larger sensor and a more open aperture results in a picture in which the area of maximum sharpness becomes smaller, this is just physics.
For the same reason, you get these nice bokeh on a DSLR, because of the large sensor.
It's not possible to change that behaviour, you have to more carefully decide, which is the most important part of your picture and manually focus on it.
Thanks for your reply. Samsung seems to agree with you because...
I had a live-chat with Samsung today and they offered to remotely check the camera and the sensor which we did. They, indeed, claimed that the camera is expected to only display the area in focus as being sharp, the rest of the image should be at some level blurry.
Do I like it? I don't know. Do pictures look better than on my old S6? Absolutely! I think they got it right in the end. For what it is, it's a good compromise.

How to take best picture in very strong light condition with HRD+/HDR+enhance

Hi all
when i take picture of my yard in bright sunlight, when i open the camera app and choose the HDR+on/HDR+enhance with autofocus, the yard in the camera screen is over-exposure, and when i take with HDR+on/HDR+enhance it doesnt change any thing when i saw in the camera screen, it quite strange, because i thought that function should process the over/under-exposure to keep the best detail, highlight and make the picture as real as it can ? what do i miss ?
and one more thing
when i tap the screen to focus to the sky, all around object and bright become darker and when i tap to the yard the bright around is brighter but the sky is lost detail of cloud and the building, it's normal ?
sorry cause i'm newbie with google pixel
Note: i post my isssue to topic https://forum.xda-developers.com/pixel-3-xl/how-to/share-pictures-pixel-3-xl-t3854033/page12, but i think it would be better if i make new seperatelly topic

Yes, nightsight would be better than in daylight but if so why do we need HDR function ?
hi all,
i have another picture with my yard
that when i tap focus on the sky to keep the detail of the building and the sky, the yard is more darker, i dont see any advantage when using HDR function on this camera ?
