Weird thing with iphone camera

[Jaiden]

I was playing around with my iphone a couple of minutes ago, taking photos of random stuff in my room, when I was treated to this little suprise after looking at the preview of the photo I had just taken. I went into the photo app, and sure enough, it was still the same, completely distorted from a normal picture.

I took another picture to see if it was permanent, and it was completely back to normal! I took a picture of the exact same thing from the same angle, to show you just how distorted and mixed up this is.

I'm not really bothered by it, I just thought I might show you guys

here is the mixed up picture, put back together, and overlaid with lines on the edges of the pieces.

It's a known problem with the iPhone's camera.

Happened With Me

It Happend with me with my iPhone 16GB the first Generation .. I Figured that this will happen to u if you have the version 2.x and you open the camera app and quickly pressed the capture button

This is an added feature to Apple's soon-to-be-released jigsaw puzzle app. Remember those good ol' jigsaw puzzle games on the Mac? Yep, this is it.

As this phenomenon (image distortion) is already in a core app (Camera), any "jigsaw" apps made by Apple should get rejected as they will be duplicating existing app functionality.

You realize if they fix this bug, there are going to be people complaining that they can no longer make artsy jigsaw photos, right?

Unless Apple adds it in as a option you switch on and off.
