I checked my camera at different settings for vacation next week and found this .
That shot was at F/22. I used my rocket blower on the entire interior of the camera, front and back of the lens...still there. Switched lens, still there. Using my 15-30, I started at 3.5 and worked my way up 2 stops at a time. I can't see a thing it until I hit 9.5 (VERY light), at F/13 is gets more noticeable.

Stubborn sensor dust. You'll probably need more than just a blower to get rid of it.

Welcome to the wonderful world of sensor dust. Check here.

Came back to add thats a plain clean sheet of paper.

Thx Colette. I've seen sensor dust as spots, not ones that look like a hair. I guess a cleaning is in order. Not bad though, 1st time in almost a year.

The 'hair' turned out to be a hair after all, just a little stubborn. The other spot was sensor dust. Thank you.

I now return you to your regularly scheduled program.
