Fake "internal storage" on Picture? Where is my 2gb Gone?

Hi, I've been having this bug for a long time.

My sony Xperia showing:

Internal Storage > Picture and Videos (2.1 GB)

BUT I DON'T HAVE THAT MUCH PICTURE IN INTERNAL STORAGE!!

Where this 2gb gone? I only have few images left in internal storgae which I believe spend no more than 2 - 4MB.

I always save my pictures and videos in my SD card.

Even the "transfer to Sd card" method only detects 600KB size pics.

When I try to look on my Internal Storage Album, all I have left are those pic (screenshoot) which cost no more than few KB.

I cannot save any game and application data because I do not have any more space on my internal strorage!!

It's impossible for me to keep deleting apps everytime i need a space, and sacrificing it because of this bug.
