iPhone cases taking "foggy photos" with flash?

There is a speculation that certain iPhone cases cause "foggy photos" that have a haze over them when using flash. I just got the white 4S and am looking for a simple, not too bulky case that will avoid this problem. Any suggestions on a case? Keep in mind that I am a girl and am not too attracted by bulky superior drop protection cases such as the Otterbox series lol.

iPhone 4S, iOS 5

It's no speculation - it is the case. Just proved it with my wife's white case. We both have iPhones and my case is a teal blue that I bought at Five Below for $5. It's a great case. My advice: open the package, put the case on your camera and take a flash photo. If it's at all foggy, don't get the case. The only other option is to always take your case off when you take a flash photo, but that's not very convenient. If you take the case off your iPhone, take a flash photo and it's foggy, then I'd return it to the Apple Store. Otherwise, replace your case.
