D6633 Camera Flash Problem

Hi all,

My new D6633 (Z3 Dual) has a real problem using the flash in low light.

I seem to be getting light leakage onto the lens

I do have  Ghost Armor protective film on tha back of the phone, though this has now been refitted 3 times and looks perfect to my eye.

I am attaching a pic of the camera lens, so that it can be compared to other Z3 handsets.

Also, is there any protective film over the lens and flash itself? I didn't remove any, but cant really tell whether anything is fitted.

Anyone got any thoughts/suggestions??

The film it's too close to the lens and the flash

Uliwooly,

What exactly do you mean by too close to the lens and flash?

Try shooting without the flash.Then take same photo with flash.Does look like backflash off protector. The camera does perform well in low light without flash

I have to confess to being very disappointed with the quality of my pics with this camera (flash issues not withstanding)
It seems markedly worse than my previous Galaxy Note 3!

I can't understand why you say that, as the camera on the note is reported as being absolutely crap in the dark by many owners.It is also reported as being grainy in dull day light conditions. I have taken many photos and videos with my Z3 and bar user error they have been really good
