Line/hair/crack on Pi camera module sensor?

Thu Jul 04, 2019 5:23 pm

I've just bought one of the V2 camera sensor units and noticed some strange ghosting (a dark line) on some images. On removing the lens, it looks as though there's a hair across the sensor.

It doesn't move with a blast of air, so is it an intentional bit of wiring, or perhaps a crack?

Difficult to get an image of it, but attached is the best I could get.
