I know that iPhone cameras suffer this. But I never noticed on my iPhone XS.

I was taking a video for my mother in laws birthday and the candles were causing lens’s flare. This was indoors and artificial light. The show as green dots for each of the candles and went away when blown out.

Also outside while I was taking pics and videos of sparklers on fireworks night I had green dots appear on pics.

Is there a way to avoid this happening and what has changed on these newer cameras to make lens flare more noticeable.

My understanding is it’s the lens reflecting on itself?

Do the pro’s suffer the same issue?
