I'd guess that the onboard flash is causing the lens to make the shadows that you see? Do you get a shadow when not using a flash?

Yes, that looks like the onboard flash causing the lens to cast a shadow on the image. Have you got an external flash? The increased height of an external flash mounted on the top of the camera can usually resolve this problem.
