[QUOTE="Zerobeat, post: 486880, member: 34751"] I've noticed some spots in photos taken with my D700. Originally, I saw dust in small-aperture shots, so I cleaned lenses, filters, and blew off the sensor with a squeeze bulb. Much improved, but it was mostly on the camera side. Lately, I've noticed small spotting, and in some occasions, they almost look like an orb with a halo around it. Thinking it was my CPL, I took some test shots tonight. First was lens/CPL, second lens w/no CPL, third was different lens altogether. It looks to me like one of two things: Condensation, or a poor attempt at cleaning it. What say you? (The spots are mostly along the top, with some grouping to the upper right corner.)
