Techradar’s “iPhone 5 users report ‘purple halo‘ camera glitch” article reported that iPhone 5′s camera injects purple halo into photos, and this only happens when a light source gets captured near the edge of the photos. I tested this problem out myself and found the same purple halo glitch for iPhone 5 camera. Perhaps, I have to go to Genius Bar (Apple store customer service) to see if they can help me out on resolving this issue, because taking error free picture means a lot to me. Sure, I can totally correct the purple halo issue in any photo with Lightroom 4 software, but having to know that iPhone 5′s camera can inject incorrect tint color into my photos is really bothering me somehow. Anyhow, I took two photos in my room just to prove that even artificial source of light can trigger the purple halo glitch for iPhone 5 camera, and you can check these photos out right after the break.
