The photographs I take with my Xperia have circular lights or appear whitish (Flare, Ghost)

    When you point a camera towards a strong light source, you might notice whitish areas (flare) or circular bands of light (ghost) due to the characteristics of the lens. However, this is not a malfunction. When you're taking photos, remember to compose your shots carefully and avoid direct exposure to strong light sources to capture clear and sharp images!
