my arc makes weird noise when exiting camera app?!?! - Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

whenever i exit from the camera app after taking a photo or playing around with it makes a weird clicking noise when i exit it by clicking the home button. it seems to be coming from the camera area.
is this normal, does it happen to your arc too? can you hear your camera "focusing" when trying to focus on images?
i'm a bit worried something might be damaged because my arc has taken a few bumps while at work.

There is nothing wrong with ur phone, it's normal. Happens to all of us.

Broken Camera on CM7 7.0.3.1

If anyone has encountered this or knows of a fix, please help me!
My camera app (as well as other apps that use the camera, such as Google goggles) are not functioning properly. The camera on the phone is making a noise as if it is opening and shutting, and the picture on the phone is blinking on and off. To top it off, the apps start to freeze when this happens, which makes me think that the app is having problems initializing the camera, and it may not be just an app issue. It also has the same problem with the front camera, so both back and front are doing the same thing.
Any ideas guys and gals? I could really use some help here, I rely on the camera multiple times during the day at my job, so I need it to function.

is it the speaker in the phone making a shutter noise or the physical camera? im pretty sure there are no moving parts in either cameras..

Camera does not focus

I sent my phone to repair because some issues with the speaker. In the moment I got it back I flashed it with Froyo FR and I realised that the camera was not able to focus it didn't even make that sound or whatever, it just takes the pictures without focus. Do you guys think that it could be a software or a hardware problem?
Ive experienced this before. But in my own exp. It is either the subject is moving fast, you are too close to the subject especially if flash is on, or there is little contrast or light.

No, it is nothing like that. Before every time I launched the Camera it made a sound, and right before to take the picture as well. Now I cannot even focus when I want to read a QR code with the Code Reader.

[Q] Buzzing noise with camera

When I open my camera app on Calkulin's latest rom themed with icecreamsandich 2.0 I get a buzzing sound that does not appear to be coming from the speaker. When I tap the screen, the sound goes away. Does anyone have any idea whats going on here?
happens to me too but on any rom i flash... kinda annoying but I just tap the phone and it stops...
seems to happen at random...
Happened to me also. Turned out that it only happened with a low battery. I do believe that the camera is modded to work even with the low battery which might be causing the noise. Hope this helps.
^hmm.. mine seems to do it at any battery level.... ill monitor closer and post back.
thanks J.M.
Mine doesn't do it at low battery but my wifes does or rather, use to. I think it's actually coming from the CMOS or at least that's where it seems to be coming from.
FIX: Using a file explorer click on the Camera.apk and install it like a normal app. Not sure why but doing it that way and letting it install like a system app update will fix the buzzing. This is my experience.

Taking up close pictures

Whenever I try to take close up pictures of anything it doesn't focus correctly and always come out blurry, does anybody know how to fix this problem or have a alternative? Thanks
I personally never had a problem focusing on close up pictures unless it's in low light without using the flash. Hm.. Try zooming in a little bit at a time, at the same time pull back the phone slowly.
