Picture with LED looks foggy ???

I am having the same problem, foggy/white pictures at night with the LED. I have the new white I phone 4. Did you ever fix your issue? I do have a case on my phone.

thank you

This is an apple issue. I also have an HTC surround and the night pictures with the flash are beautiful.

I love my Iphone, but not all things apple are perfect. You just have to deal with it.

.

I took two pictures of the same thing from 12 feet in a dim room.

With case on, which has a hole for the camera lens and led flash, the picture was foggy/hazy.

With case off the picture was clearer with brighter colours.

My case definately makes a huge difference. it is a Roots Tough Skin.

I did the same, with and without case. No difference. Still foggy

Remember, It depends on how dark it is. The Iphone does not take good pictures in very low light. The flash is too close to the lens and reflects light into the camera. You can't do anything about it. If you want good night pictures, use a real camera.

There is no help. What people don't understand is that phone cameras are designed for snap shots in ideal conditions. People are expecting the same results with a phone camera as they get with an expensive DSLR.

It's simply not going to happen. It is impossible to put all of those qualities into a small phone.

Basically the manufacturers have put a $5.00 camera in a cell phone. But, for what it is, most take a decent picture. Again, in ideal conditions. If you know your going to be taking important pictures, or pictures in less than perfect conditions, get a real camera.

Hi Sarduyjorge,

How did you go with this? I have had the same problem. It is not to do with the type of camera or flash, it is definately an iPhone problem. I have an expensive SLR and some of my iPhone photos would rival that of my SLR (without using the zoom of course). Then one day BAM every photo taken with a flash is now foggy and wrong. I used to rave about the iPhone 4 camera but sadly it has not continued to impress me. Photos without the flash are still lovely,

Off to the genius bar for a chat. They usually sort it straight away!

Let me know if you found a solution.

There is no way your iphone camera takes better pictures than an SLR. Its impossible. It only appears that way on the Ipnone screen. The truth is in the printing of the picture. Remember, Pixels have nothing to do with quality.

My old 3 megapixel Nikon D90 takes way better pictures than my 8 mp phone camera. It is all in the quality of the lens and the size of the CCD. MP's are a sales pitch to fool the consumer. However, if your not printing or enlarging photos then this does not matter. Most young consumers don't print their pictures. They are used on wedsites and shared between cameras. Again, its is kind of a design flaw by apple. But only because of the type of camera. Because the flash is small on a phone and the lens is low quality, you have to get close to the subject for it to work. This in turn creats flashback which causes ghosting. The only way to fix this is to put a more powerfull flash on the camera at the opposite end from the lens, which will eat up your battery life. Remember, Phone makers don't know squat about cameras and how the lens and flash work. They just throw something together for the consumer.

Heads up to Apple, if you need help designing your cameras on the IPnone, give me a call

I have an iPhone 4 and my mom recently got the white iPhone 4S. I took a picture of the same dark room with flash on each of our phones and mine was clear, while the white 4S was white and foggy as described by the original poster. I'm thinking it's a white iPhone problem?
