The camera causes interference on the screen.

I noticed on my SG2 that when the rear facing camera is active the screen has an interference pattern. You need to point the camera at a white light or something so that the screen shows just white.

When the camera isn't running there is no problem.

Am I the only one?
 
Does this happen in low light situations? If so, it's just the way cameras work. Especially cameras on phones. They don't have big lenses, so they can't gather a lot of light. The result is a lot of noise in low light situations. It's just the camera attempting to decipher what it can't interpret. It happens on all cameras. Noise looks like snow or graininess. It shouldn't be a problem with your screen or your camera, it's just the way all cameras work, even really expensive ones.
