iphone 5 camera spots
Has anybody else had spots on their camera shots? (See images below) It appears as if there are specs of dust on the lens yet it is completely clean. Looks like a trip to the Apple store is in my future.
iPhone 5, iOS 6

I have spots too. Lens is clean. Any results from the apple store?
Haven't been into apple yet. Have an appt with gBar next weekend.
If its in bright conditions it looks like the light reflecting off maybe the lenses inside the unit, I get no spots in normal conditions and the spots go if I move the camera out of bright light. Have to say I wish I kept my 4S
Found this which expains it Camera - Many iPhone 5 users may have experience taking a photo and see laser-green dots accompanying your photos. This is due to the flaring problem with the upgraded camera on the iPhone 5. http://au.ibtimes.com/articles/390052/20121002/iphone-5-problems-bug-fix-maps-ca mera.htm#.UHqRdIWG9z8
I too am having this issue. Your images are gone, but if its the same issue as mine, its not the purple lens flare problem. I just noticed that I have faint black spots arbitrarilry on my lens. From the outside, the lens is completely spotless.
Did the genius bar help at all?
Went into Apple Genius Bar and they swapped out for new phone.
Hi I just bought mine during the new release and recently noticed the same thing. Its a minor annoyance but an annoyance none-the-less. Im going directly to the G Bar tonight to try to get some answers. I really hate to have to start from scratch but I cant have purple dots on peoples faces when I shoot photos.
I would like to see how many more people have had this issue.
my iPhone5- got me crazy since there's a hot pixel (red color) when shooting in the dark room. Any of you facing that problem?
I'm having the same problem and its been bothering me for days!! If they swap my phone, do they have to charge you?
I bought (iPhone 5) 2 days ago and now I found out there's two or three Red color hot pixels on isight camera esp on rear camera in the dark. I just want to know other iphone5 has the same problem like mine or not.
Please help me out.

I have an appointment at the Genius Bar on Thursday November 22 (tomorrow). I'll let you guys know what happens after I talk to the guys. I hope they'll just replace my phone.
I have the same issue with my camera. There is one black looking spot on the screen. When zooming the spot gets larger and looks like digital noise. Anyone talked to apple about this and had their phones replaced?
I had the same problem. I took it in to the apple store on Thursday, and told them about this. They couldn't do anything about it so they said that they had to swap my phone. They swapped my phone free of charge. I left the apple store in 15 minutes very very happy.
