You ’ve probably seen written report fromAnandTech , Gizmodo , CNet , and other situation about the iPhone 5 ’s camera and problems with a purplish haze in pic . And while the test photos I take for ouriPhone 5 reviewdidn’t show the purple daze effect , I can now confirm that I have beenexperienced . I ’ve even seen the problem ( though not quite as enounce ) with an iPhone 4S and a Samsung Galaxy Nexus phone .
Somereportsand users mull over that the iPhone 5 ’s azure lens natural covering might be to blame . Some website , such asThe Next Web , say it ’s purple fringing . Other sites , such asDigital Photography Review , say that it utterly is not . There are sight of possibility , and Apple collective has not made a program line on the cause of the issue .
Without get access to the camera preferences , it ’s hard to examine the possibility that the iPhone 5 ’s camera preferences could be at fault . The Exif data does show that the iPhone 5 and 4s opt for different background when dart the same shot . The iPhone 5 shoot at higher ISO mise en scene , for example . I did try using a unlike camera app , but launch the same purple issue when using Camera+ .
Test photos
If you indite a picture with a hopeful unclouded source just out of frame near a morose background chemical element , that darker factor may seem purple . Below are some image sample from the iPhone 5 and a few other devices .
Having the bright tripping source in the frame seems to be good than having it outside the shape . As you could see in the photo below , get the lamp in the shot lick our purplish job . This may not be the answer you were looking for , and it may not help in all situations , but it surely help in this scenario .
Gizmodoreports on reponses by Apple tech livelihood , who say that this is expected behavior and indicate border the photo differently . While most people groan at that type of answer , unfortunately , it ’s realness — and not just with the iPhone 5 , but with many sound cameras .
