Hey,

Anyone know of any products (or recommend send away services) that I could use to get the spots out of my pictures? Not sure I would want to do it myself, but always willing to try.

The camera is the Sony DSC-P200.

Bought it when it first came out just over a year ago, don't really use it, take it on holidays and to le mans, but recently its gotten dust or some scensored in it.

The problem can be seen in the photo below. (Dont worry, has been reduced from 7.2 to VGA)

Dusty

Thank you.

Is it finger marks on the lens? Have you tried cleaning the lens both sides?

I think its dust really. I have tried wiping the exterior with one of those super soft cloths that come with eye-glasses. I wrapped a cotton-tip with it.

haha, yeah I got the same thing. Pretty annoying when they follow your vision no matter where you look or how crazy you roll your eye balls.
