[QUOTE="hark, post: 618155, member: 13196"] Usually with issues on the front glass, if they are going to show up in photos, it will be when the lens is stopped down to a small aperture. Try a few test shots at f/11 or f/16 and see if anything shows up. And as others have said, having a light source in your images might cause some lens flare. Be sure to use a hood whenever possible. So specifically test it with small apertures as well as having the sun in your photos and see how the images look. If anything shows up with small apertures, then keep testing with wider apertures. If any spots show up from the marks on the front glass, there might be a point where a wider aperture won't show anything. You'd need to take some test shots and see which apertures work the best.
