Hi! Got my new iphone 12 today. When I take a photo of something with a light source in the picture, am i supposed to be seeing a ghost image of that lightsource (mirrored) in the photo?
(i tried to log in to apple support, but that also didnt work... just kept redirecting me to settings where I am logged in. So seeing if this is maybe the best place to ask this?)
iPhone 12, iOS 14
Hi there A23h3,
We understand you're experiencing an issue with light reflection in photos with your iPhone 12, and we'd like to help out.
This behavior may be expected when taking pictures with a bright light source. You can learn more here: If you see a flare, haze, or spot near the edge of your photo or video
Cheers!
It is pretty normal, and can happen with any camera. Iphones (and ohter phone cameras) are particularly susceptible though because of the flat glass/saphire over the lens.
Here is an example of mine doing the same (just taken)
