Lumia 1020 Camera Won't Hold Focus

Anonymous

When using my 1020, I hold the shutter button halfway down to let it autofocus. It proceeds to do so briefly, but as I push the button, it loses focus and results in blurry photos. The manual focus does a little better. If I tap to focus, I can usually get the focus I want after 10 or so tries. This issue comes up at any focal distance.

Is the camera broken?

Thanks.

    Hi Craig

    Please send to me your issue fix too.

    With I have more an issue with wide range focus than on macro.

    Especially when I use the zoom the fokus even in far distance doesn´t work.

    After a couple of attempt you can be lucky and get the right fokus.

    Thanks

    Has this issue been fixed yet?

    first six months this phone was taking great photos now the focus is terrible, and as everyone else has described it initially focuses and then blurs before taking the photo.  Such a joke, should've just stuck with Samsung.

    I have the same issue. Having used it now for 1,5 years it is very frustrating. Is there a SW or hw fix?

    .....

    Ok brought the phone to a repair shop were they fixed the screen previously. They replaced the camera module and now it works again. So this was a HW issue the showed up after time, probably caused by the drop I had that also broke the screen.
