[QUOTE="johncook, post: 62708, member: 9654"] Hi guys, What would you do in my shoes? I bought a used lens on eBay for £170, it said it was in used condition, lightly marked but fully functional. it's got lots of dust inside the glass of the lens. This was not mentioned. I tested it out on a holiday to Portugal last week (first chance to try it out but I did buy it about 3 wks ago) and you can see 50+ dust spots on portions of the image (mainly visible on the blue sky). I bought it as a walk around lens as it's quite light and it otherwise works, but I think the amount if dust is unacceptable and it's gonna stop me using the lens and switch to one of my other lenses. It's definitely the lens not the sensor because putting my other lens on and there are no spots on the pictures. I've sent the seller a message about this, just waiting to hear back. [/QUOTE]
