from few days i was digging my venue camera for low light shot, i always feel the low light shot of our dell venue is not upto the mark, whatever rom may we use.but in daylight camera works really well.
searching in this forum i found that removing back cover gives clear picture, i tried and it works, picture taken in low light is awesomely well than it take previously with back cover on. it surely indicates that main culprit is not the lens cover but the hazy cover of the flash itself.
so i do the following .......open the back cover and from the back side of the back cover where the dell logo is there just press that plastic flash cover guard with ur finger.. after littlebit of pushing it will come off...now put the back cover on the mobile without that flash cover. voila ur done. now u can take good images with flash in low light. and ur lens is still now protected coz u have to remove only the flash over only
if anytime u want to put it back just press that plastic guard once again and it will again fit with it.
try it.... it works for me very well............pictures are really clear n awesome.

Will definitely give it a try. I had cleaned the camera cover at back panel and that was sufficient to give better results so I'm sure that this may work wonderfully well too.

Every time I take a picture that includes white, the white looks like it is glowing.
Any ideas on how to fix this?

Check your exposure settings, you might be set too high. You can long press on the shortcuts at the top of the screen (assuming you're on stock) and add exposure to the shortcuts if you want too, so you can change them easily. I assume you're not using a flash, right? That could be the culprit too if the subject is lit well enough.
Could be your case also. IF you have one of those clear cases they tend to cause the camera to do that when the flash goes off.....not with all but some...just an idea
Turn the exposure down.
Mine looks exactly like this if I haven't cleaned the lens in a while. All the saltwater in the atmosphere here depositing junk on the lens.
First try different camera apps..If you see the exact light spots in different camera pictures..I would pull back case off there's 9 little screws..and use a wedge tool atounf the chrome casing and the glass..pulls off easy..abd clean the back of the lens..very easy to do..sometimes dust gets in there from the speaker and blows around...
I've had my phone for about 6 months now, and never taken a photo with the flash in a very dark room - until now that is. See attached - it's a photo taken in my house's attic. Do others have this problem? Or is it just me? If my phone is defective, unfortunately I bought the one from Amazon with no warranty: http://www.amazon.com/Sony-Compact-...TF8&qid=1461862592&sr=1-4&keywords=z5+compact
Luckily, I have almost no need for taking flash pictures in dark rooms, but it's irritating none the less.

It's common and not only to the z5c, it has been like that in a few of the z phones. Any case you throw on will amplify the problem as well. The camera sucks in almost every situation, but in low light you see obviously it's useless, it's a shame. You could try a new battery back, they're only a couple bucks.

Yeah I have a z1c and I remember this being a huge topic of discussion right after it was released. The z1c was never this bad though. This photo was taken without case.
what colour is your z5c?
Hi, i have exactly the same problem, dark room with flash just blows green shadows on the picture...i rarely take photos with flash, but just want to understand if this is common for all z5c phones, or just to few defect batches only. Otherwise i will ask the seller to do exchange.
Thanks
I have same issue after replacing a broken backdoor.
The cheap backdoor bought on ebay was missing a gasket around the camera lens.
So the light from the led was "running" on the inside on the backdoor.
I have fitted a thin adhesive tape around the led so the light only gets out trough the led opening.
Try pressing the back cover several times before taking a picture.
Its work on my phone, flash bleed gone.
I do this every time i want to take photos with flash
Or you can open the back cover then replace the adhesive with strong adshive (I recommend b7000)
The problem may be due to the back cover glue that has been weakened by overheating issue.

also you should attach thick duct tape beside the flash glass (between flash and camera)
That only happened to me after I replaced the rear cover. It's missing an additional layer

The missing one is the camera gasket that prevent dust and light bleed from the camera flash

Oh man, this solves completely this issue. Many thanks
I have a problem with the rear camera ,all the subjects are out of focus .
Tap your screen so it can re focus lol I'm teasing. Try a third party app. If that fails inspect the camera, is it scuffed up? Any moisture inside? Is the front camera ok? You can find and replace your devices drivers for the camera if rooted and you know how.
This seems to be a common problem for Mate 9 and 9 Pro and i've RESOLVED it in MY case.
FIrst, does the monochrome mode (camera) work OK? If so, then you *could* be in the same situation I was in.
So, first and most important, I have a gel cover on my case to absorb impacts or, at least stop the phone getting marked when dropped. I dropped my phone and it landed on one of the TOP corners. From this moment on, the COLOUR camera was out of focus. I asked around in the Mate 9 forum and it seems others have had this problem and one person there said he fixed it by tapping his phone. With this in mind i actually i banged mine on the other end ..... and focus was INSTANTLY much better, although not perfect. I then banged it again and focus is back to perfect!
In my case, it looks like my initial drop dislodged a lense/cover over the colour camera sensor and a "reverse" knock has vibrated it back in to place.
Again, check if this is just the colour sensor with the monochrome remaining perfect and, if you do try this, make sure you have something soft like a towel on the surface you're hitting to ensure your phone doesn't get marked.
Good luck!

i have try follow the post knocking at the corner of the phone and yet its not working. do i have any alternative choice
I actually had the same issue. Camera would not focus. Probably due to a drop in the right corner. Hitting the phone on the left corner a few times fixed my problem.

My rear camera isn't working properly anymore so I was just wondering if anyone else has had a similar problem so if I can confirm the likely culprit. Whenever I use the rear camera the screen is mainly purple and pixelated and I can only just about see the background through it all.
The front (selfie) camera is fine so I'm just thinking about replacing the camera at the back but thought I'd ask around in case anyone knew of any other common problem it could be in case I was barking up the wrong tree.
I tried to upload a picture of what it looked like but couldn't manage it.
I've watched a couple of YouTube videos on how to replace it and I'm happy to have a go but if anyone's got any experience/advice on that too it would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

hi,
I had same problem two weeks ago. Suddently the rear camera gone to pink the frontal was good. After the initial panic, I've tried to search internet, on some forums was said to gently push around the rear lens and the camera will show something. Some one says that use this method pushed firmly around the ring and the camera was fixed, some others no.
In my case, pushing around the camera, initially worked for a couple of seconds, then the image was flickering with vertical green lines, noises, and interlaced "grid" grey scan lines like old videogames. then was hardly usable only pushing around the rim for about one minute for take a normal photo. here is the attachments of panic:silly:
I think the camera was damaged by too much overheat that unglued the backplate, and consequentially the use or some hit or light fall may had damaged the flex sensor or the placement lens on the motherboard. In fact in the previous months i had noticed the backplate was moving if poked with fingers on the edges. I mean gently pressed and the back plate was moving. Doing the pressure factory test, it was around 1020,3-1001Millibar on static and changed when pressed on screen or on the back. I had a dbrand skin on the back and due to the heat shrinked and became smaller. I think the overheat was caused by the firmware updates and some app that sucked away the battery in years. Upgrading from Lollipop, twice to MM, to Nougat, in years and then in the last time some flash to MM and then to Nougat again give it the final hit, especially the first time power up after flashing when you have to set everything from scratch.
I sent it in warranty repair, for camera damaged, added the request to swap battery due to duration (because on June the warranty ends ) and to check and fix the IP68 requirements, also noticing very overheat issues.
Now the pressure test is a solid fixed 999,01-999,03Millibar and the feel is more solid in general when handled. If you have luck when Sony repair it, the screen protector on the front if you have applied, won't be touched, only the back.
good luck
So did they just replace the camera module that is plugged in to the top at the back? (obviously apart from battery too).
Your post seems to suggest overheat which caused motherboard damage too.
Unless I've read it wrong you're suggesting swapping the camera will fix the problem.
I know I'd obviously need a new back cover too.

There was some dust under the lens of my Z5C so I got that cleaned about a month ago. Today I tried taking a picture/video with the flash on, and the image got completely discolored. I tried it using the stock camera app and other camera apps as well, so I don't think it's a software issue. What could be causing this? Thanks.
Here's an example:

unfortunately i think u are experiencing same than me, i had same problem with my flash, and also my battery time was becoming lower...
finally i felt in ma hand something different in a back corner but cant see what it was
with time my battery came worst and worst, my pics too and it became visible tha my back plate was slowly opening
now its totally clear, its almost gone bc the battery inflated, wich moved the back cover (around 2mm opened on the bottom left corner) and make the flash reflect on the lense
aloso now my phone shuts down around 60% battery
hope its understandable, english is a bit hard for me

Thanks! I think you're right because when I press the back cover down, the picture is normal even with the flash on. I'll replace the battery and hopefully that will fix it.
I have broken back cover. There was no problem with camera on beginning. After back cover stick out even 1 mm led light start to illuminate by reflection to the camera and bright the dust on lens and under it. Simplest solution is to get new back cover adhesive.
