I spent almost 4 years taking pictures with my mobile Samsung J7 with reasonable results but the two below surprised me.

Taken in sequence they were followed by a third, considered "normal".

Could anyone offer a brief explanation? Gracias.

 

Looks like a strange Rolling shutter artifact or a Glitch in the Matrix.

You might have better luck checking the Samsung forums (helped with my Sony camera, the Sony forum
In that case).

 

Your camera is also a phone, a computer that can update itself, a wifi device, a Bluetooth device a music player, a gps, ... it looks like something was interrupting your image capture or the image capture buffer was not completely emptied (saved) when the next photo was snapped.

if it is not a camera/phone issue, bring that kid to a hospital immediately.

 

Did you accidentally have the phone in pano mode?

 

hola at,
Lightened the images to show more detail.

After learning what pano is!! and verifying my camera, I believe that that is the reason. Gracias Yaakov.

We went with her mother and sister but straight to the ice cream parlor. All OK ;-)

 

Good call on the pano - We had some fun on the seaside last year but too many faces to edit. So here are some others I found that give the idea ...,

A moving cat...


or a moving person...



If you tilt the camera as you scan horizontally...



or tilt while scanning vertically...
