Blue Dot in Pic

djayvo · 11-26-2008, 08:31 PM

Just playing around seeing what the new K200D can do and getting use to the camera. Made this shot out the front door. I was not surprised of the problem lighting but was of the blue dot. Can anyone tell me what this is?

This might be clearer to see.

The round circles going down and right look like lens flare. The blue dots look like sensor to back of lens and back reflections.

My first time posting pics and I know they are not to good, just starting out with DSLR.

Hi, I agree with DAZ, looks like it's caused by lens flare to me.

A round sensor?

Thanks for your replies. I know I pushed the lens by shooting into the light just wanted to push the camera and lens to compare with 35 mm film camera. Didn’t expect the blue dot though. So far my test pics are close to my Dad’s Canon XT as far as pic quality. Have not had time to make any adjustments though or play with many settings. I have a 28-80 FA lens on now but just ordered a 18-250mm DA lens and it should be in next week.
Thanks again for some insight.
