Cameraphone - purple spot on pics

barbarawright

I've got a Sony Xperia U phone and I do like to take a fair amount of piccies but now I'm getting a purple blotch on them. Is this a lens problem? And is there an easy way to get rid of it.
Many thanks for any suggestions

Have you tried cleaning the lens?

I've had a go but with such a tiny lens I'm not 100% sure how to go about it properly...

My first thought was 'chromatic aberration' but there seems to be a software update for this... seem you are not the only person to get this.

Go to Sonymobile.com, dropdown menu for Software, and find an update.

You need a soft non scratch cloth and lens cleaner. Nothing else. Try software update first.
