Flash Bleeding: is Sony going to something about it?
- Thread starter GiveMe2Beers
- Start date
I just got australian carrier version yesterday (which is launched at 18 March). Can confirm I still have the problem. White version
With flash? I might say there is a whitish fog on the grass, maybe from flash bleed? It would be more certain if you would try to capture a homogeneous picture, like about the sky. Thank you anyway

Yep with flash and there was sodium vapor lamp throwing light on the grass below me.
Giving it for service
The pictures are horrible. 90% of the pictures have the same issue. It is not a cheap device and they must have done their job right
lesson learnt: NEVER BUY A PHONE WITHIN THE YEAR OF ITS RELEASE IN YOUR COUNTRY AND ONLY AFTER YOU ELIMINATED THE KNOWN ISSUES FROM YOUR PHONE.
attached are the samples from my z1 compact white phone.

Well, now, how is that even possible?! As far as we know, it is a hardware issue. Anyway, I (and more than certainly we) would be VERY happy if this is solved!

Could you possibly post more test-photos with the flash on in a dark environment (as for example about the dark void sky at night - but nothing else close)?

Flash bleed is NOT and will be NOT fixed by fw upgrade! Though it can be somewhat alleviated by lowering ISO, the original issue will still remain the same.
Once again, it IS a hardware issue made more apparent by bad camera settings!
So, unless Sony is gonna replace the back panel, the flash bleed will stay by our side forever -_-
PS: It's easily fixed by a permanent marker though: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2671795
Z1f has different back panel made from different material. It was confirmed that z1f is free from flash bleed issue (as well as from scratches) =)

I will try to do that when i got a chance.
No, it still gets a lot of scratches. Sony has put the same film on the back panel just like the one on the front.
Never had Z1f in my hands.
Z1 Compact have plastic back cover without film.
And just when you look at him on a rough way.. scratch

1we can only speculate. They wont fix it with a fw update. Changing the back panels are the only thing sony could do. are they gona do it? i dont know, and i dont think so
ps: i also had to repaint it, but now its fixed. the paint stays longer on the second or third time that you paint it.

Ever heard of HTC One purple tint issue on camera? I'm pretty sure it's a hundred fold worse than this camera issue and up to now HTC didn't provide any official recall or fix for this problem. AFAIK this issue only shows up on situations where an image would be worthless. I mean who takes picture of a black sky without any objects? Or takes a picture on a empty dark room without any focused subject nor takes a portrait picture of an object which is on a far distance than normal. All I can say is take it easy... Just use the camera normally and you won't encounter the issue. I've done low light pictures from the compact already from night concerts, Selfies on night, low light shots on some friends and stuff and I haven't encountered the light bleed issue. The only way I can reproduce it is if I take a picture of the sky, taking a picture of something a few meters away from me or taking picture on a empty dark room(ghost hunting?).
i disagree. yes this bleed is a lot worse when taking a nightsky pic, or in a complete dark room, wich are things that you probably wont do. but you can also reproduce it under situation that you might come in the future where light is low, but not complete dark.11
