Its not dust and it's normal on Nikon's. Basically a light metering system.

The blurry dot in the center of your Nikon camera is part of the light metering system. I believe it's more specifically the "Center Weighted" light messuring mode. The dot measures the light of the area that is covered by th blurry dot and makes it priority one. You can adjust the size of the blurry dot but some lenses will override this seting based on their needs.

I just found the same spot in a camera displayed at one of the retailer too. So I dont think it is an issue. Thank you every one for you prompt response and clarification. Cheers!

Both my D800 and my D7000 have this spot.

Its normal, as in its ment to be there.

I have dust between 5 and 6.

I get that too, and hairs. I just use a blower to get it out.
Either I shed hair while the lens is off alot or it's a magnet for hair and dust.
