Hello,
Has anybody noticed a little dust under rear camera glass?
In my Z3C it is visible in sunlight, you have to look from the angle. There are no problems with images taken by camera, but phone is quite new (not even 2 weeks) and while it is dustproof I think it shouldn't have any kind of dust in this place...

Hi,
Noticed that my camera lens was getting scratched. I was trying to look at it closely and it seems something like the asf (a plastic film) is also on the camera lens. At least thats what it seems like to me.
Can someone confirm if that is indeed the case or am I just seeing things?
Thanks in advance

You're probably seeing things, unless you put a protector on there yourself.
Mind you that the glass for the camera is a separate piece of glass, so the edge is visible just inside the silver ring - not to be confused with a protector. A protector wouldn't actually be needed anyway since the glass doesn't go as far as the glass backplate. That is, it doesn't touch any surface when you put the phone down (unless you got huge pieces of dirt underneath).
I myself have accidentally scratched the factory screen protector on the back of the phone quite a lot, but my camera lens is still perfectly intact. And no, I really cannot see a protector on my camera lens :cyclops:

If the glass gets scratched a little, say on the bottom left part, above the black ring. Does it influence the camera quality? Just like i somehow got a minor piece of dust behind the glass over there.

As long as it's not right in front of the lens and it's tiny, it shouldn't pose a problem.
Actually, if you take a bunch of pictures and you can't find one spot they all have in common that looks odd, there's no problem anyway :angel:

I didn't find any spot, yet sometimes i doubt a little about the lighting. But that can also be the normal lighting effects. Not that big of a photographer with experience hehe.
I have bought used phone but haven't got the time to check everything. Eventually, I saw pictures had something like rust stains all over them. I thought it was the protective glass, tried to polish it, but eventually, I dismantled the phone's protective plastic (including the camera protective glass) and figured out those stains are actually on the camera itself (ie. camera's optical lens). I tried to clean them using soft cloth and alcohol, but it didn't work.
If someone could suggest a way to remove this dirt from the lens, please write. Here's the pic to show you how does it looks like:

I am interested in changing from my z3c to Xperia X Performance or just X.
But I have some concerns about camera lenses. The last two xperia phones (Arc S and current Z3C) I had did have terrible lenses. Not glass, or gorilla glass or some equivalent so it would get scratched and damaged very fast. I had it replaced on my Z3C.
Wonder if anyone knows if its a different story this time? Thanks
Not sure what the lens or the protective glass is made of. However, I keep my Z3C in the back pocket all the time without taking any special care since about 1.5 years without any damage whatsoever... Certainly not a common issue you're having.
Well it's not that uncommon. There is a YouTube video were they test phone lenses to scratch resistance. Samsung, iPhone, LG i think, have it in glass. Sony have it made from plastic scratches very easily. And it's more like air or moisture trapped between the layers in the lense protection that causes problems. Just Google images z3 compact scratches and you will see it pretty common.
Hello everyone I bought this phone for the camera.
I have read a few different reports where people say the camera lens scratches really easily but other reports are saying it has scratch proof glass, which is it?
I want to keep the lens protected if easily scratched but these lens covers/protectors look like they will ruin the quality of photo.
Any answers or advice here please?
Hi, the lens is protected by tempered glass, keys and coins, even razor blade cannot scratch it.
And for a lens cover, I saw some on Amazon.
Recently, somebody here reported breaking the cover and had to buy a new one. The lens are probably more sturdy though.

I have my phone in a good protective case and I have a tempered glass screen protector.
My concern is the camera lens on the rear scratching so really I don't know if I should continue with a lens protector and lose some image quality or leave it off as the lens is pretty durable. I cannot get any factual answer either way.
I am not sure about posting a direct link to Amazon, but currently utilizing the kit available for $7.89 (by UPONEW) and do not notice a change in image quality.

I do have a similar product on my lens, some images look great but sometimes they look a little off in areas and cannot work out if it is this lens protector. If I know the lens has good scratch proofing I would remove it!
I scratched my rear camera lens within weeks of owning. Only a tiny scratch even though I have a decent case and have tried my best to look after it. Pictures are unaffected. You can get a new lens for very cheap online so I'll probably do that if it gets worse.

I worry about the lens protector I have on and picture quality, certain areas of my pictures always look a little blurred or lower quality. Is this a focus thing on camera settings or the screen protector do you think?
The only thing I can suggest is if you still have the second lens protector ( the link says 2 pack...) us to take a bunch of photos In various lighting, then remove the protector and take the same photos again so you can compare. You can always put the spare protector back on afterwards.
Has anyone suffer from dust in The camera lens? Especially in the bottom one.
