Strange that it didnt work out of the box.</P> Tue, 30 Sep 2014 19:36:34 GMT Izak 2014-09-30T19:36:34Z https://community.sony.de/t5/z-series/camera-issue/m-p/3296920#M35143 <P>I have an issue that when I activavte the phone camera the camera does not respond. All I see is a black screen, and after waiting a minute or so the phone shows an message that the app is not responding and I have an option to wait or close.</P><P>This behavior is not consistent however, on a few ocasions the camera did resopond and I can actually see the lens is working and the camera focusing when I press the shutter button. It did take a few photos, but mostly it doesnt work.</P><P>If I try to take a photo right now all I see is the black screen, like the camera application is not responding. I have updated my phone with all the latest software updates. Is this an know issue or do I have a defective phone? Any idea how to fix this issue?</P> Tue, 30 Sep 2014 08:04:57 GMT https://community.sony.de/t5/z-series/camera-issue/m-p/3296920#M35143 Izak 2014-09-30T08:04:57Z https://community.sony.de/t5/z-series/camera-issue/m-p/3296921#M35144 Have you tried doing a clean restore? I'd give that a shot first, but if that fails you've really got to get in touch with the place you bought it from.
