Related, in this thread the OP discovered that he couldn’t take photos of an election ballot - they were being overwritten with a big green block.
- reginold 5y agoNo, the OP in the thread later retracted as they could not replicate and it seemed more like a random bug in the camera: "Yesterday I was a bit in a hurry and could not do all tests that I would have liked to. Today I tried to repeat the whole process with the same setup, documents still laying on the same table untouched etc. Just the lighting changed substantially (morning sun). I was unable to repeat the 'green picture effect' even once... all pictures taking with Xiaomi stock camera turned out well. I am sorry that I jumped to unproven conclusions (censoring) :( " Please read your full source in the future before posting. It clouds the discussion. (I just did this myself on another article)
- mvolfik 5y agothis turned out to not be true - the comments pointed out that the overwrite is likely an app interpreting it as different image format, which had happened before, and OP didn't replicate the issue the next day in different light
