While I have no way to prove it, My new M8 seemed to have the same
issue....but to be honest, I never checked until after  a trip and saw the
spots.

It was not dust.... it adhered and smeared when I cleaned it.  I thought at
the time it was oily, but had no way to prove it.

Anyway, once gone, and recently re-calibrated for non-focus, it seems just
fine.....

Film never got oily, dusty or otherwise...

The new way of doing things is really new.
