Laser Split Into Camera Lens Pattern: What is it?

[Hodranoel]

What is the pattern made of balls?

I have some hypotesis: Something related to the CCD, a diffraction pattern caused by some dirt on the lens, or, but i think it's absurd, the Bravais lattice of the lens?

I'm very curious!

It could be a variety of things, or a combination: my first guess is that your camera has a lenticular screen (perhaps for autofocusing), and you are seeing glare off that.
