Green ‘noise’ lines when using camera in dark conditions

Has anybody else experienced green lines across the screen when using camera of iPhone 12 Pro Max in low light conditions? These lines are less obvious but still visible on any taken image. Is this a know issue or fault on my phone?


iPhone 12 Pro Max, iOS 14

This is happening to me too. The lines are mostly bright green with some magenta when previewing the shot before clicking the shutter button. They’re toned down somewhat in the final image, but still there. No damage to the phone, and doing a hard reset stopped the problem for a while. I noticed it was back again yesterday. Would really like to see a fix for this in an upcoming software update.

My wife and I both have the same issue. We both have the iPhone 12 Pro Max - Both iPhones are maxed out as far as the options available. Quite an investment for this severe of a problem that is taking this long to correct. We purchased these phones to use the cameras for creating content for our business. We are wondering what steps we should take to help solve the issue. Does swapping a phone out for a new one fix it? Or, do they all have this issue? We do a lot of low light work (Music Industry). Apple has the best camera hands down. We receive and produce content from all types of phones. Apple media is simply the best to work with. The content sounds and looks far superior to the other top-of-the-line phones.
