Nikon D7000 spots

[AJRacca]

Alright, so those of you with a nikon D7000 have any of you had spots in your pictures taken at higher apertures. I've only had my d7k for 6days and I found some spots on my pictures. I used the blower to see if it was dust but it wasn't. It was still in the same spot. I've done some searching and there was a few sites that had this same problem and it was oil spots. So those of you with nikon D7000 or any other cameras have you had this problem? Please let me know, it's bugging the crap put of me.Here's one thread: Flickr: Discussing Oil droplets on my lowpass filter in NIKON D7000 CLUB

If you go through Nikon support, will you please let me know if it was a pleasant experience?

Well I called Nikon and they told me to send them pictures of the spot, which I did. Now I'm just waiting for a reply back.

2wheelPhoto: whats your S/N i think there's a problem with the ones starting with 3..... but i could be wrong.

All other Nikon D7000 owner or any other camera owner. Are any of you having this problem?

Any time I have dealt with Nikon (Nikon Canada) for a support or warranty issue, it's been a very pleasant experience. I hope that you're able to find a satisfactory resolution!

Thanks! I hope so too, I just don't want to deal with the same problems of shipping my camera back and fourth to Nikon. I'd rather return it and wait till they fix the problem on newer D7000's.

I have not notice any spots on any of my pictures so far. I've taken maybe 5-6K since getting it.

It only wants cleaning

If it was only 6day, you may ask the reseller to replace it with a new D7K body rather than go for Nikon support.

Same here! I've got 22k clicks on mine and not a spot of oil on the sensor or lowpass filter. I bought mine back in January and the serial num starts with a "3" if that helps anyone.

Looks like dead/stuck pixel to me...

Mine starts with 3! But no isues to report. Maybe if the "3" is key, they'll let me send it in for a complimentary cleaning

Hey be careful about the group "herd mentality" on the internet. If 5 out of a thousand cams have a problem, and 4 of the five people post it on the internetz, half the folks out there will think theirs is a problem too and you may find an infinite thread about it as the herd picks up steam and rolls downhill.

Surely some spots would show up on these pics taken with mine...or am I just not seeing them? Here's a few random shots. I assume if the spot would show up in one pic obviously, it could then be found in all of them in the same part of the pic?

Here's a few pictures to show you what I'm talking about.
