Fixing Blurry Images on GemSparkle
Quick Answer
Blurry GemSparkle photos are usually caused by a blocked autofocus sensor or interference from the sparkle lens. Check that your phone's autofocus sensor is not covered by the attachment, and for complex diamond jewelry, try removing the sparkle lens cap.
Before You Start
Attach your GemSparkle to your phone as usual.
Locate your phone's autofocus sensor — it is typically found near the main camera lens on the back of the device.
Steps
Check whether the autofocus sensor is blocked. Look at how GemSparkle sits on your phone. Confirm the attachment is not covering or partially obstructing the autofocus sensor near your main camera. Reposition GemSparkle if needed.
Retake the photo. After repositioning, capture the image again. If the photo is now sharp, a blocked autofocus sensor was the cause and no further steps are needed.
Remove the sparkle lens cap. If blurriness persists — especially when photographing jewelry with numerous small, tightly grouped diamonds or intricate designs — remove the sparkle lens cap. The lens can interfere with autofocus on highly complex pieces.
Retake the photo without the lens cap. Capture the image again and check for improved clarity.
Expected Result
Your images should be sharp and clear. Repositioning GemSparkle so the autofocus sensor is unobstructed typically resolves the issue immediately. For complex diamond jewelry, shooting without the sparkle lens cap reduces interference and improves focus.
