When I try to take pictures & even looking at screen on the right side is a black spot & shows up on pictures

SOURCE: Black spot on lower part of screen.

Sounds like the LCD is damaged, it's commonly called a bruise. It can only happen when too much force is applied to the screen causing irreparable damage to the LCD crystals, causing them appear darker than the rest.

There is a picture here on the second post down.

My Nikon was having the same problem with the stationary black spot. I used a can of Dust Off ( the original compressed gas duster). I just removed the lens and held the camera upside down (lens facing the floor) and blew my compressed air inside and my black spot disappeared. Just a thought you might like to know !! Good luck.

Hi :-)

The round blotch your seeing on the screen is the melting of an acrylic lens inside the light engine. Its a design flaw which unfortunately Infocus will not stand behind. To fix this problem requires opening the light engine and putting an equivalent lens in place. This task is very involved, but this problem is repairable and you need a glass smith to cut the right size lens from the original.
