i have a problem with the camera of iPhone5. If I want make a photo in a dark room with flash, the flash appears to short and after the flash is out, the cam makes the photo and so my photo is only black. Have someone else this problem? Is this a software or a hardware problem?
iPhone 5, iOS 6
I read somewhere that if you went to settings>general>software update there would be an update for some iPhone 5's. I have a 32gb sprint model if that makes a difference
I have access to two iPhone 5's both have same problem.
Very disappointing.
I belive that was a settings up for certain carrier details in the US. My iPhone is bought from Apple via the UK and is a sim free model. 🙂
Contact Apple and let them know, the more people do the more they will become aware of the issue.
Yeah I got mine in the us maybe they're different. That wasn't really helpful I'm sorry.
No problems, at least you had another idea 🙂
Had the same issue ..... flash seemed out of sync with the shutter . All the pics I took with the flash on were blacked out .
I did the general reset and everything seems to be working normal again .
Still , something caused the problem in the first place . Hope Apple will address the problem .
Yeah, a powercycle seems to have fixed my issue. I tried to show this issue to a friend and it didn't reproduce and I realized I had powercycled my iphone the night before.
I've got this problem with my iPhone 5 too. First noticed it at a wedding last weekend - bad time to notice problems with a camera phone.
I flew to the wedding, so the phone was turned on and off multiple times before the wedding, and I still had the issue. Same thing when I got back - turned it on and off a few times on the way, still had the flash issue.
Assuming the power cycle works, it only gets rid of the issue temporarily.
I've still got my iPhone 4, and it has the latest software, and it doesn't have this problem.
I am having the same problem.
The flash fires, then goes out before the camera takes the picture. So you end up with a dark image. Here's a couple of picsof my cat in the dark taken with iPhone 5 and the flash on:
As you can see the images are totally useless.
I hope Apple sort this out as the camera takes some fab pics and this can not be a "normal" camera issue like the "purple-flare" issue.
Same issue. Apple really needs to fix with an update soon hopefully. Also all pics taken with the flash on have a white haze. :(
Remove screen protector from the back that should resolve the problem.
