Just a bit. Let me know where it comes from.

I normally shoot pictures of people in towns and as a result my pictures
don't tend to have large areas with no detail such as blue skies.  I shot a
picture of a coastal scene at the weekend and discovered lots of round spots
in the sky area when I upped the contrast.  They look like spots of oil on
the sensor.  When I took Aperture's loupe to the pictures I took when I
first got the camera they were there too, except that they are fewer in
number.

I'm going to take the camera to the Leica Centre in Mayfair for a sensor
cleaning but but this looks like oil getting sprayed from somewhere inside
the camera to me.  Has anyone else seen this problem?

Neil
