Here we go again? I hope not.

Went out today to shoot some landscapes. I blew the sensor off with a rocket blower before I left. When I was doing some PP after the shoot, I was doing some Dehazing on the sky and this is what showed up.

I'm going to do a wet cleaning and hopefully this is only dust, but this was about 20 shots into the shoot. If this is shutter debris I'm gonna be seriously pissed.

I have the giottos blower. never use it. only do wet cleaning with the sensor swab and eclipse cleaner. maybe consider that sticky cube cleaner. many seem to like it.

was that a graduated blue filter? seems you missed the sky and the mountains got it. ive stopped using filters. if and when I go to a trip I just do multiple exposures and copy the correct sky over. here it would be very easy.

very nice scenic for photos

Hope thats all it is Pete,but thats a bloody big bunny to the right of the mountain top.
That's not the one that worries me.
I just did a wet cleaning and it's spotless now. I'll go out again tomorrow and take a bunch of shots. If it stays clean I'm just worrying about nothing. If it's like this again then I have a problem.

Not a filter. I used the dehazing tool in LR to make that area clearer so I can see the dust better. I was worried that shutter might be breaking up again or some shit!

Hope all goes well tomorrow Pete. I wouldn't be a happy camper either, if it still has a problem. My wife gets after me for being loud in normal conversations. I wouldn't even want to think about the volume, tone, etc. if I had to get in touch with Nikon again. Ha!

Oh no! Put the body into jpeg only and fire off a number of fast, continuous shots then check it again.

I'll throw in my 2 cents.

The biggest one could very well be dust on the back of the lens. I very well remember having one like that that I tried to clean, blow off, clean until I switched lenses and noticed it had gone. Then looking carefully at the back of the lens I did notice the fluff ball.

For the other little specks, they look like possible smearing from your last wet cleaning. I did get some too when I started cleaning my sensors and it took me a bit of practice and a few trials of different products to get rid of them.

Now one thing that some people forget is that what you see on top of your images (usually the sky) where most the dust is more distracting is dust sitting in the BOTTOM of the sensor. Remember the physics (image reversed by lens). So my suggestion is that when you clean your sensors, put the camera upside down and take more care of the bottom of the sensor.

And third, shooting at f22 and then going dehazing will very much show too much...

I really don't see this as shutter debris, so I wouldn't be concerned.

Hey All I'm starting to see the same issue with mine just hit the 3000 shots mark seems to be getting worse. Shot this photo at F22, used Dhaze to see if there were problems and there they are.

Okay thanks glad to here it, i'll take it in for a cleaning to the guy i use. I'll also ask him if he see's this issue with other D750's that are coming into his shop, i hope it's just dust. Only really shows up on F22 and soft focus ( I went looking for it) had on the 24-70 which is suppose to be sealed. Guess i'll find out.
