1) Yes, it helps a lot. Matte is probably better, but shiny does work.

2) I painted it, tried to reproduce Slender's test, and could not find any haze. I used black nail polish/paint, it's surprisingly durable. It's glossy, but less so than the front bezel.

If you don't want to paint the chrome, it seems to me that since the white haze is at the top of the picture, a way to at least partially avoid it is to set your pictures to widescreen mode.

A new back cover costs about €20, so the risk is limited.

I`m not sure what causes this.....but even with covering the crome didn`t help a bit!

It always happens in a room at night (low light conditions) when you capture a photo with a 45 degrees angle.....it happens when you have an object at the left side closer to you and you don`t have an object on the right side of the frame!Voila, blue haze at the right upper corner....I can reproduce this almost all the time!If I want the blue haze I just put an object on the left side of the frame around 2-3 meters away (with a 45 degrees angle....this is crucial!) and I get the blue haze.

Hope there is a fix to this....it is annoying!

@Sophoca: Did you cover the blue part of the slider ? Try to reproduce with the backplate off. Also make sure your lens is clean, in high contrast situations like flash photography even slight grease and/or dust particles on the lens can cause haze.

Yes the blue part is covered as well and the lense is clean....I don`t think it has anything to do with the crome or the blue part (the blue part of the slider is not reflective anyways)....i think it is a software issue.Haven`t tried to take the cover off....whats the purpose of doing this, we are not gonna go around taking pictures without the cover anyways, but if the cover is faulty then Nokia is screwed.

I often have the feeling if the blue part *was* reflective, we would have less problems as the light would be reflected sideways, and not scattered on the matte surface (and thus partially back onto the sensor). Anyhow, taking a picture without the backplate could help you isolate the source of your problem. You can't fix it if you don't know what's wrong.

I covered a blue part with black electric tape. No haze anymore. (I don't do any with silver part)

It will prove if it's software, or a problem with the case design.
