4S camera problem

[JetBlack7]

Hey guys,

When I'm in a dark room, and I use the cameras flash, this happens.

Its not normal, what should I do?

Are you using a case? Any sort of film protection? Inspected the lens and flash for any debris?

I have the same issue but I thought it was normal and because the flash was too strong in a darm room. I don't have any case or any shield covering the camera

It should definitely not look like that..

The camera should adapt it's settings automatically to get a correct exposure!

EDIT: But if you got a case that disturbs the flash, then it can look like that too! Some rear protectors too, though i haven't noticed any problems with my rear protector and the flash being used in the dark.. But most cases does definitely make it a problem..

I noticed this morning that I still had the protective pelicle that comes with the phone, I took it off and it's better, but still a little too much exposure.

I was testing the camera with the app "Pro HDR" by the way.

Good to hear!

How about pictures of how it is now? Use it with the regular camera app and use HDR in that and without and post them up and we'll probably see if it is the way it should be!

That looks just fine, i'm taking into account the distance and that you have a light behind the objects which isn't optimal in dark rooms, as the camera usually wants to see objects in front of a light as silhouettes
