Camera lens - sth like a part of a rainbow on my display ...

i think that my "camera-lens" is damaged or sth ... every time i want to take a pic ... theres just sth like a rainbow on my display ... i thin that the lens is damaged - what to do now ... ... pls i need help ... there are only this ****** mcshark resellers here .... no apple stores :/

That is one thing you could do, but no one else has any experience of exactly how your machine has been treated, and no one else can see the damage it has suffered. So all any of us can do is take guesses in the dark about what the damage actually is and what might have caused it -- which might be mildly interesting to someone, but certainly won't get the problem fixed. I recommend getting it fixed instead.

I had to reboot my kids ipad cause she lost her passcode, anyway after i did this it was like a new ipad, lost everything, including the camera which i thought was part of the ipad. can anyone help

You are correct. The camera is part of the iPad and the app is part of the iOS so it cannot be deleted or downloaded again.
Assuming that your daughter has the iPad 2 or newer (the original iPad did not have a camera) ....
Swipe from screen to screen to look for it.
Check Settings>General>Restrictions and make sure that you didn't disable it.
You can also reset the home screen layout and the icon will reappear - but the home screen will return to the way that it looked when you first activated your iPad.

The ipad screen appearance streaks mold (like status "bamboo root" on the DSLR camera lens)

I have bought iPad2 two years ago (3G 16GB )
Recently the ipad screen appearance streaks mold (like status "bamboo root" on the DSLR camera lens). This mold streaks increasingly spread.
Is it the manufacturer fault?
How can I fix it?
I currently live in Vietnam. I'm looking forward to your help.
Thank you!
Regards

My mom isn't willing to buy me another iphone because before I went to a concert and the speakers messed up half the screen. If its the software acting up can I get a free new one?

Moisture has somehow entered your iPhone and specifically the camera. They will do an out-of-warranty replacement for $149 USD.

Can you get just your rear camera lens replaced or do you have to get the entire back screen replaced?

I recently dropped my phone for the first time, and neither of my screens cracked but my rear camera lens did get scratched badly. I can't use it at all to take picture. It just shows up as a fuzy screen when I open my rear camera. My iPhone isn't even a year old yet. Now, I need to know if I can get just the rear lens replaced or if I have to get the entire back screen replaced? I also need to know if anyone knows how much either of these would cost? Or is it free with the one year warrenty?

You would have to get the rear glass panel replaced, it is one part. Normal warranty does not cover accidential damage. You can do it yourself for 50$:

Camera lens now working

BINGO - HAVE FOUND A WAY A WAY OF FIXING CAMERA PROBLEM.
It is not a hardware issue, but a software issue.
Somewhere the camera the settings, have been messed up.
By re-setting from a back up, it only puts back the restored files etc, including the duff camera settings. Only by zeroing the iPhone will this work.
Hiya all, I recently sold my old iPhone 3G to a friend of mine, but I had the problem with the camera lens not opening, the camera application would still work, and sense the orientation of the phone. But it would let me take photos etc.
Before I passed the iPhone to my mate. I ZEROED the phone, by going into Settings/General/Reset, then select ERASE ALL CONTENT AND SETTINGS.
Make sure you have you iPhone plugged into your computer or mains adapter etc, because this could take up to 2 hours.
This resets all settings to their defaults and erases all your information and media:
And also brings the iPhone back to the state, of when you first purchased the iPhone.
I've only just spoke to my friend who has taken the iPhone from me, and reassures me the camera is now working.

Sounds like a hardware failure to me. I'm sure you've checked the obvious, like something covering the lens.

Why am I seeing dust inside my iPhone 5S camera lens?

I don't have a case for my iPhone 5S and I do carry it in my jeans pocket. I am also not a messy person. So today I noticed something -- there's clearly some dust inside the camera lens (the one in the back.) When I shake the phone it rattles around. How in the world can it get there? And is there anything I can do to get it out?

Not unheard of, look to your right under "More Like This" for related discussions.-->
You have a 1 year warranty. Take it in and let Apple look at it. Back it up first.

Problem with Camera lens on 16GB iPhone 3G

So I have a Black 16GB iPhone 3G and was wondering if my iPhone is the only one with the camera lens not sitting flush against the phone. Like when i rub my finger on the lens i can feel the silver circular border being slightly raised more than the black of the phone. So i was if it is a design flaw or bad assembling and was wondering if anybody else has this same "problem"?

It is normal, if anything being lower than the level of the phone is a good way to help eliminate fingerprints and dirt on the lens caused by your fingers and hand.

Is it possible to replace the camera lens?

i purchased my phone refurbished and was just wondering if it was possible to replace the camera lens?

Probably.
Apple does not do this, nor do they sell the parts.

HT4061 can i replace the camera lens on my iphone

where can i buy a lens for my scratch cam lens?

You can not. At least not from any legitimate sourde. Apple does not sell iPhone parts. The iPhone is not user servicable.

HT1462 The green light next to my camera lens comes on but the picture is black, how do I get it to come on?

• If you have not already done so, restart Mac and
    try again. If the iSight still does not work, continue.
• If Apple's http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2090
   suggestions do not help you, (are you certain that you
   used the correct "reset" procedure?), yours is most likely a
   hardware problem that will require a professional fix.
   Unless you have a current backup, make one now.
Then use the final "Troubleshooting" suggestion:
"... contact Apple or an Apple-Authorized Service Provider for service."
• If you want to try one more thing on your own first,
use Disk Utility to repair permissions. Then
download and apply the latest Combo Update for
your OS. Currently, the latest SL Combo is here:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1399
• Repair permissions again immediately following the system restart
   that completes the Combo update.
Properly applying the Combo version of updates can sometimes correct software problems, but, if your trouble is caused by a hardware problem, there are no user serviceable parts of iSight.

Dust inside back camera lens

Just noticed two specs of dust inside my wife's iPhone 4, she bought it in July 2010.
The cut the long story short, photo's from that phone always looked "soft" (like the lens was dirty) when compared to the photos from my iPhone 4.
Yesterday, however, I had to take some indoors pictures with my wife's phone as mine was out of available storage. Most of the photos and videos looked rubbish: huge halos around light sources, grain, weird colours, very soft (inferior even compared to a friend's 3GS). So I knew something was wrong, and then I noticed two specs of dust inside the camera lens, right in the middle. The phone is otherwise immaculate apart from a tiny screen scratch. I guess the dust was there from day 1, as photos never looked right.
Is this supposed to happen over time? Is the lens unit sealed? Is Apple likely to fix it under warranty (the phone is 8 months old)?
Cheers,
GB

The phone comes with a one-year warranty. Make an appointment at an Apple store. If your phone is deemed defective, it will be replaced on the spot.

Crummy Camera Lens Blur CS6

The Camera Lens Blur effect that came with AE CS 5.5 and CS 6 doesn't look nearly as good as the old Lens Blur effect that came with CS 5; it's pretty much unusable for my purposes. Foreground elements that should be sharp render sharp, but with a blurry halo around them. The old Camera Lens blur does not exhibit this behavior, nor the Frischluft Depth of Field plugin.
Here's an image showing the depth map and how the three plugins render it:
CameraLensBlur.png
The images are composited from 16-bit PNGs rendered out of Cinema 4D. There's a nasty halo visible around the foreground particle in the upper left in the CS6 Camera Lens Blur version. I saved the old Lens Blur effect as a preset out of a CS5 project and am, fortunately, still able to use that approach in CS6 since the "improved" version of the plugin looks pretty crummy (I skipped AE CS5.5). As a test I installed the demo of Frishluft's Lenscare plugins, and after inverting the depth buffer in the plugin I got a good result.
The "new" Camera Lens Blur is acting like the Compound Blur effect. Foreground elements appear sharp but with a blurry halo since the entire "background" is being blurred, creating a blurred ghost of the foreground element. The old Lens Blur effect was very slow, but it did work.
Anyone know how to make this new "improved" Camera Lens Blur look like the other plugins? I've posted a zipped file with the image and depth map in a small AE CS6 project here if anyone here would care to check my settings. Maybe I'm missing somthing.

Thank you.

It's been now more than 2 years now that Shawn referred to you this "bug". Thing that I doubt to be a bug. However, after 2 years now, and being on CC 2014.2, this is still ugly when using a depth map. The bokeh is nice, I give you that. But you clearly can't use it with a Dmap. I know it's pretty useless to tell you things that you already know, either make a bug report. It's clear now that it won't get any update.
And as someone here said, if you can't/don't wonna fix it, why can't you simply pack the old Lens Blur from CS5 as an obsolete effect ? Or let's go crazy, just buy the Frischluft (Dat name...) blur which works and pack it.
I would love, of course, to hear from you that you're on it and that a new release is coming soon... Anyway.
Just to remind you, here some pictures of what we are experiencing with your Lens Blur using a depth map.
Halo around the lens on the middle until the screw top right... and cannot be fixed by any way with the focal distance. But yes, the bokeh is really nice.
And here with the Frischluft
It simply works.
You could say then, why am I not buying it ? I'm considering it a lot now.

Camera Lens Blur CS5.5

Hello. I just installed the new Creative Suite CS5.5 specially for the new features like warp stabilizer and Camera lens blur
I have even upgraded my PC to Intel core i7 - 2nd Generation processor with a normal basic graphic card. As I could not afford a really good one.
My question is..... about the feature Camera Lens Blur.
Inspite of having a very fast processor, the effect Camera Lens Blur takes forever to render..... even at Third or Quarter resolution...... And I am not even rendering a video. I am rendering a Jpeg photo.
why does it happen so? even at such small preview resolution and such fast PC ???
Any solution to make it faster?
I do know....effects like reduce noise and blurs take time....but this takes tooo much even on a JPEG..... So i am afraid....it might take toooo much on a HD video....
Help me regarding this
Thankyou,
Priyank.

Thanks a lot Mylenium and Andrew.
The jpeg was having a huge size of around 4000 by 5000 pixels ........ And I hadnt even Put the fast previews to OpenGL interactive. I reduced the resoution of the Jpeg. And now after doing both...... I am getting awesome reder speed even arnd 150 blur
Thanks a lot again..

Camera & Lens Profiles

Can anyone explain the differences in the Camera Lens Profiles in ACR and the Lens Correction Filter in Photoshop CS6.
Reason I ask is my D800 and Nikon 14-24mm lens is detected and correction applied in ACR, but the same camera and lens combination is not recognized in the Photoshop lens correction filter. The D800 is nowhere to be found. But interestingly the profiles for the D4 are
Many folks have asked in the past when the D800 and Canon 5DM3 would be supported but all the attention has been focussed on ACR, so when will these profiles be available for Photoshop Lens Correction?
Cheers
MK

There is no question that ACR provides the Camera/Lens Profiles - this thread is why there is a difference between the Lens Correction built into Photoshop CS6. Many camera and Lens combinations supported by ACR do not show up Photoshop's Lens correction - like the D300 is missing, the D800 is missing - but all there in ACR.....
What I was hinting at was why is Photoshop not using the same profiles as ACR? Seems strange and more convoluted support model
