So I have been ripping my camera on the forums lately as I noticed the pictures I've been taking have been really bad. I just noticed that the lens is foggy. I think it's on the inside.... Is there anything I can do about this?

Are you sure you didn't leave the plastic protective film on the lens? If not, no - the camera module has to be replaced. (It's cheaper to replace than to repair, whether it's under warranty or not - cheaper for the manufacturer if it's under warranty.)

Actually, I did some research, and there was a film on top of the lens. I used a dab of water and a credit card and was able to scratch off the film. The lens is as good as new now.

Thanks for the reply!

Ya, mine did the same thing. I didn't get the scratches that others got but the cloudy lens instead. I just used rubbing alcohol and a Q-Tip and it's like new again.
