Black spots when taking a picture

When I take photos or videos, two black spots appear at the screen, this just happens when taking a photo or video so I guess that it might be something with the camera. I would like to know why is this happening and if there is any solution. This is really annoying so please help me,
Pablo

Are the spots in the same places every time? Do you have an example picture?

I have a white haze over photos when taking a picture with my flash

I have a white haze over photos when taking a picture with my flash. What can I do to fix it?

After the ios7 update, my wife's phone began having these same issues and we assumed it was a flaw with the update.
But after some trial and error, we concluded it was the illumination of the white plastic backing of the iPhone 4. We tried a different protective case, we blackened the apeture of the black case with a black sharpie, none of those things worked.
It was noted that the white and blurry photos only occurred with a case installed. Without a case, the photos were perfect. It is a *** issue.
Since we were using a case and appearance was not that big of an issue, I decided to apply a strip of black electrical tape with holes punched out for the camera and flash mechanisms and reapplied the protective case. This tacky fix solved 95% of the white blurry look to the flash photos.
So a work-around is to apply a non-transparent piece of tape, or sticker with appropiate sized holes for the camera lens and flash LED on the back of the white plastic phone case. It's tacky, it's a poor design from apple, but it works.

CK71 suddenly hang when taking a picture using the camera

Hi team, The customer is using the CK71 with camera option.
OS is. 1.61.22.72.
Our partner developed the camera application based on Intermec source file according to the IDL(Multimedia Resource Kit).
Regarding the source that the partner tested, I attached the zip file including the DotNetCF 3.5.
Also, I attached the CNxDShow.CAB that we have to install first for operating the camera. The symptom is... when taking the picture again and again in light environment and in dark environment by turns, suddenly CN70 hang. For restoring, we should remove the battery and install it again for rebooting.
But, the customer hates the removing and reinstalling the battery. To reproduce the symptom....
1. Copy all file under the folder "\FullSreenCameraCNx\FullSreenCameraCNx\bin\Debug" and paste them into the device.
2. Copy the CNxDShow.CAB and paste into the device.
3. Install the CNxDShow.CAB first
4. Create new folder "\My Documents\My Pictures" on the device, if the device doesn't have the name of the folder
5. Execute the FullScreenCameraCNx.exe on the device by clicking
6. Try taking a picture by pushing the enter key in light/dark environment by turns again and againIn our trouble shooting,
The application put the log file when taking a picture.
the location of the log is under the folder "Flash File Store\Log\Device_Conncet".
Normal log is...
===================================
2015-06-30 5:2:31 Camera Shot S
2015-06-30 5:2:31 Camera Shot E
2015-06-30 5:2:33 Start
2015-06-30 5:2:33 Shot Result : Ok : \My Documents\My Pictures\SnapShot-5.jpg

2015-06-30 4:58:1 Start
2015-06-30 4:58:1 Snapshot failed
===================================But, Abnormal log when Device hang suddenly is ...
No "Start" or No "Snapshot failed" like the below.
===================================

2015-06-30 5:5:34 Camera Shot E

2015-06-30 5:5:35 Camera Shot S
2015-06-30 5:5:35 Camera Shot E
===================================Please see the logfile in the 20150630.txt that I attached additionally.
The thing that we are feeling that it was strange is....
in the source, if invoked "Cam.Snapshot(CurrentResolution)", "Cam_SnapshotEvent" should be called. But, when we experienced the "Device Hang" during taking the pictures, I guess that "Cam_SnapshotEvent" were not called. I copied and pasted the some part of source that I want to highlight like the below.
============================================================//---------------------------------------------------
// make snapshot
bool AcceptingEnter = true; //for eliminating repeating enter keydown events...
void Form1_KeyDown(object sender, KeyEventArgs e)
if (e.KeyData == Keys.Enter && AcceptingEnter == true)
AcceptingEnter = false;
log_Entity.write_Log(1, " Camera Shot S");
Cam.Snapshot(CurrentResolution);
log_Entity.write_Log(1, " Camera Shot E");
e.Handled = true;
// Received snapshot event
void Cam_SnapshotEvent(object sender, Camera.SnapshotArgs sna)
log_Entity.write_Log(1, " Start");
if (sna.Status != Camera.SnapshotStatus.Ok)
log_Entity.write_Log(1, " Snapshot failed");
MessageBox.Show("Snapshot failed");
else
log_Entity.write_Log(1, " Shot Result : " + sna.Status + " : " + sna.Filename);
============================================================ Can anyone provide the information or solution why the CK71 suddenly hang and how to avoid the "device hang"? Best Regards,
Kim, Hyun Wook

Zooming when taking a picture

I have a Blu Win HD Win Phone and when taking a picture and i'm trying to zoom in I stretch out using my thumb and forefinger but it doesn't do anything. How do I zoom in?

For help using Windows Phone please post in the Windows Phone forums on http://answers.microsoft.com

When taking a picture with home button and sleep button can you get rid of the tool and task bar??

When taking a picture with home and sleep button can you get rid of the tool and task bar?? (the search bars)

No, but you can use any picture editing tool to crop out the bars. (Many are free in the App Store.) Me personally, I use PhotoPad, which I use to crop as well as rotate the screen shot. Takes less than a minute to do both with PhotoPad.

I just recently saw a black spot when i am taking pic by rear camera from iphone 5s

i recently notice a blak spot when i am taking pic from rear camera on my iphone 5s

I personally haven't experienced much of the "reverberation/feedback" when using a headset on the i4S...
Yes, I have near-perfect hearing too (for scope, squeaky brakes hurt my ears) I come from many conversations on many phones and types and first off, CDMA technology is great for coverage, terrible for voice quality. HD Voice in Europe made for some of the best phone conversations I've ever had.
Back on track, feedback is most noticable (similar to the landline phone) when using the iPhone without a headset, but for me it's not an absolute criticality mainly because I use VoIP apps alot, so maybe it has desensitized me some over the past year.
But whenever I'm on a call, and the other person has me on speakerphone, I have alot of trouble talking because of the feedback loop caused. So the less of my voice I hear the better I can talk.
Have you tried a bluetooth headset yet?

When taking a picture with IPad. Camera my recipients always receive the photo upside down. WHY?

When taking a photo with my IPad, then sending it, my recipients always the phot upside down. WHY? Help Please.

I think that this is a philosophical question. I, for one, hold my iPad in landscape mode with the Home button on the right-hand side and in portrait mode the Home button is on the bottom.
Anyway, you're welcome!

IPhone 5 - black spot when I take pics with my back camera

Probably the lens is dirty, you can't do anything expect going to an Apple Store and ask for a genius..

Black screen when taking picture in imessage

I have a new iphone 6 and updated to iOS-8.02. When I try to send a message and include a picture, I click on the camera icon, and can take the first picture. When I try to do it again, I get a black screen... Nothing appears. I have to go to multi-tasking and close the imessage app, before I can get the opportunity to take another picture inside of imessage. I don't have any problems using the camera normally, Tried this on my daughters iphone 5 with iOS 8.02 and she has same issue.
Any ideas?
Is Apple aware of this issue and working on it? Or is this a new problem?

Sounds like the known bug in Windows 8.
Update your video card drivers from the GPU maker's website.
Or set the GPU mode in Photoshop down to "Basic".
Microsoft hasn't released a fix yet, but those should work around the bug.

Shutter sound that camera makes when taking a picture sound like it's dying.

The shutter sound that my iphone 5s makes when I take a picture sounds like it's dying. Anyone else have this happen on their phone? This hasn't caused a problem with taking pictures but it sounds weird.

Unfortunately, your naivete about complex electronic devices has misled you into a common misconception that Problem A = Cause B = Painless, no-effort, Solution C. It's all magic to you.
Virtually any problem can have a multitude of causes, if for no other reason that you have incompletely described the total state of the phone. More broadly, your camera problem is being caused either by corrupted code and or settings, of unknown origin, or a hardware issue. There is no way anyone determine psychicly. The only way to find out is the standard troubleshooting steps developted by Apple, and described In the User Guide.
it's taking more than half a day to put a big bandage on the wound and hope it fixes it.
Nonsense. 1-2 hours tops for 2 restores.
This has been a problem with the phone since the day I bought it. It can occur everyimte I use the camera app for a week then not happen as much for a couple months. In the past year, I have restarted, reset restored, etc several times and I still have this problem
You oddly failed to mention any of that in your initial post, and instead endowed us with whining about your frustration level... You didn't mention doing ANY of the troubleshooting steps you now describe. Yet another example of entitlement trumping logic.
The bottom line: Restore the phone as new (without restoring the backup), if you haven't done so already. If that doesn't work, you need warranty replacement of the phone.

When taking a picture to add to a contact the phone waits too long

When you go to take a picture to add to a contact in the contacts app itself and you have flash turned on the camera will flash but the phone doesnt save the pic untill after the flash is gone so if its dark you will just get a black screen.

Regardless of using or not using the flash, I can't seem to add ANY phone to my Contacts List from within Contacts and using the "edit" function. I CAN adda phone to a contact IF I take it with the Camera and then select it from the Camera Roll from within Contacts.
From what I see, this is a "bug" in the Contacts edit function.

My iPad New camera won't focus when taking a picture or video!!

Today I bought the iPad New. Camera started acting up at once!! Everytime I try to take a picture the camera will not focus making all of my pictures blurry. What can I do to fix this? Anyone else experience this issue? Camera on the front of the iphone works and focuses just fine, however the back camera will only take a clear picture if you're like 6 inches or less away from the target. The tap to focus feature doesn't do anything for it.
Is that hardware problem or not?
HELP APPLE!
Part № MD368X/A
Serial № DLX******VGJ

Satler-
I had not seen that. It appears several people reported trouble, but no solutions.
Yes, I am sure that being out of focus beyond six inches is a defect.
There is another problem that you may encounter which is due to noise appearing as grain when there is not enough light for a useable picture. The "cure" would be to turn on more lights. The same thing might be true for focusing, which also requires enough light to function. See if it works better outdoors with daylight illumination.
Other unusual problems that have been reported for the iPad 3, have responded to a reset (reboot) of the iPad. Hold both the Home and Sleep buttons for several seconds until the Apple logo appears. Ignore the "Slide to power off" arrow. The iPad will restart after a couple of minutes. Resetting this way will not hurt anything, and sometimes clears up mysterious problems.

Camera On My Blackberry Goes Green When Taking A Picture

Okay So I try to take a picture on my phone, and you can see fine, the camera works and you see everything through it but when I take a picture it takes a long time to load and then it shows that it took the picture but when it is going to save my screen goes green.
Has this happened to anyone? Can someone help me please?

I am having the same problem. My camera worked fine since I had it, then suddenly the same green screen every time the picture saves. I have no memory problems with my phone and have no downloaded any new apps.
***Update***
Don't know if this was the problem or not, but I recently removed some unwanted programs from my phone. A free hangman game as well as some others (All free games downloaded from the bb app store). They were removed after I found out my phone camera wasn't working for other reasons. I just checked my camera again to show my wife the prob and now it works!

Camera app freezes when taking a picture.

Almost everytime I try to use my iPhone 4 camera, it freezes. If I'm patient enough for the app to launch, pressing the camera button deosn't seem to snap a picture for up to one minute. The whole phone locks up until I hear the snap shot. At one point I thought it was an issue with the GPS tag but even turning that off resulted in the same stalling. There's nothing more that frustrates me about my iPhone than this. Does anyone have any idea what the issue could be?
