Hello.
I noticed I had some sort of layer' on my LG G2 camera. Unfortunately I cannot post images so I will have to describe it... it looks like a clear layer that has been sheared near the lens border, but not exactly as a circle, but rather an oval-rectangle shape. It looks weird since I wouldn't expect it to look as it is from the factory. Please tell me if there is a way to post links so that I can show the image.
Anyone knows what this is, and if it hiders the camera performance?
Thanks.

Any picture I ever take has this annoying black dot in the exact center of the camera. I took off the case to see if it was something on the lens and from what I can tell there isn't. I've tried clean wipes and everything and at this point I'm just frustrated, so hopefully someone can tell me that this is some weird setting that I'm not finding.
Here is an example of a picture that has the dot show up. If it matters, it shows up when recording video as well.

(New Account so I had to split up the .c om. Just put it togeter as a link for an example image.)

...maybe a dumb question, but is it on the case?
haha, nope not on the case either. IF it's not a technical or software issue it's inside the lens itself, which is pretty much impossible from what I can see. I don't see anywhere that anything could get to it.
Wow, that has got to suck, and just be plain annoying.
I'm not much on hardware, but can cameras die just like LCD screens? How an LCD screen will get a dead pixel, can cameras do the same?
I've read a lot about the MT4G FFC not being centered in the frame, but I just noticed today that my main camera is also not centered. In fact, it is so far off that the "insert" that surrounds the sensor lens itself is almost covering the lens. My picture quality seems alright, so it seems this issue is not affecting picture quality, but how do I know for sure? Does anyone else's phone have this?
Sounds like you might have a bad build. Both my cameras are perfectly centered so you might want to consider replacing it.
Hi
I have the lg g2 for a week and I have to say that's find it very hard to get good pictures, the colors are not great (seems like the camera is not taking the light well) and it is very hard to get non blurry images with any small movement in general and specially when starting to work with the zoom
I read in this forum that I should check if I have some bluish/purple coat on the lens (looks like a sticker) and I actually do have it but I did not understand if this is the cause of the problem and I should remove it or.....
I have to say that I am worried that this coat/sticker is to protect the lens from scratching.
Please help to someone that bought the camera because he read good reviews on the camera capabilities.
Thanks
Take the protective sticker off, it's only there to protect it while in transit. No major manufacturer would put something so flimsy on a device and expect you to keep it on there full time.
I don't know if that's what is causing your problems for sure though. My G2 takes some great pictures, I'm really impressed with how well it does in low light. Then again, I'm coming from a Droid Bionic, so camera technology has had a couple years to improve.

Veapot thank you for the prompt reply.
Before I am removing the coat I am attaching an image of this coat to make sure that this is what you are talking about before I am removing it.
Did you remove the same one? Because I have to say that if it should be removed the manufacture did not make it easy to remove ...
Thanks again
FWIW, I just looked at my g2 and it looks exactly the same so I just tried to remove what does look like a blue/purple clear plastic protector with no luck at all, I think the color is the colour of the body surrounding the lens! So I have not tried anymore as damage is the only likely outcome!

I noticed very recently that a faint black artifact can be seen when viewing the camera on the device. I have confirmed that this artifact which resembles an orb is not visible on the LCD panel itself, only when the camera is activated.
The attached photo demonstrates what I am seeing on the screen through the view of the camera.
Does anyone have any idea what this might be and, if so, if it is permanent?
Thanks for any help or insight you can provide.

Does this "spot" show up on photos taken with the camera or just when looking through the camera app?
Yes.
Actually the image I attached is a photo I took with the camera.

My gut tells me it would be something stuck to the optics somewhere (inside or out) since it is not a well defined pattern but more of an out-of-focus mark. If you have already confirmed the lens is clean on the outside and has no nicks/chips in the glass then it could be possible that something has gotten in between lens and the lens cover or even the image sensor and the lens. Worst case, you can get a replacement camera module on Amazon for about $25 or just the lens cover kit for about $5.
Ok we all have the same phone and the same lense front and back
This is specifically for the FRONT camera ... we all know the pictures are distorted ... its squashed from the center and appears long at the edges...
owing to the fact that it has a Wide Angle Lense
Which looks very bad during selfies
We cant change the lense as its a hardware part.
But is there an app .. or can we develop an app that corrects the distortion created by the wide lense and give us a straigt propotional shot ?
Im uploading a picture from another website showing the distortion of the lense. its not my own pic.
As im into Bodybuilding and also i take a lot of selfies ... my pictures look weird on my phone compared to my friends. My body looks normal on friends phone whereas it looks out of propotion on mine.
Lets discuss this ... cause im seriously considering a iPhone 6 over this phone now. but obv im falling back cause of budget issues.
its weird No one else hates the Distortion during selfies ?
a small bump up
I doubt there will be any way to fix it if it is the lens itself, if it's firmware, custom ROMs might be able to do it, Xposed Framework etc
No idea how though, I had noticed I looked like Bruce Forsyth a while back, but never took much notice as I don't use the front camera for much more than daft pics on whatsapp anyway
Hi all,
I am also interested about the resolution of this feature: there's no way to disable the wide angle? you have found a solution?
thanks in advance
