[QUOTE="hark, post: 307357, member: 13196"] Those darker spots do not look like the oil spots I had on my D600; therefore, I surmise the debris stems from something else besides a faulty shutter. As someone (maybe Dave_W) mentioned, some of us take precautions with where we store the body and lens caps rather than dropping them freely in the bag or placing them in a pocket. Any dirt or dust will easily transfer from the caps to the inside of the camera's body.
