so someone i know just bought a nikon d40 a while ago and shes noticing a weird black streak in the same spot in her pictures now.
i guess she took some pictures with it (she says at least 300), then left it off for a couple days because she wasnt home. then when she got back she began noticing this weird smudge in all of her pictures.
she tried switching lenses to see if it was an optical fault but its there using both lenses.
she heard from a friend that it might be sensor burn? but since its such a new camera i highly doubt its a fried sensor or anything like that. im pretty sure its dust on the sensor or on the mirror, however she has inspected the mirror already and hasnt found anything on it
what could it be? we just decided to post it on here for s second opinion.
heres some pics. its the smudge in the upper right of the pic
