I have the sensor a good blowing and the darker spots went away... so that's good. It's just the white specks I am worried about. As long as it has nothing to do with the lens, I won't worry too much about it. I'm concerned there is something wrong with my new lens
.
No other lens I have has shown those white specks (they did show the black ones) but all my other lenses flare up pretty badly shot directly into the sun, so I still can't tell if it is the lens or the sensor.
I'll try pixel mapping for now. Any other ideas?
