Spot in all my pictures

[nal13]

There is this black spot in all my pictures I take on the bottom right hand side. What would this be and how would I get it taken care of? I tried cleaning the lens already. Here are some samples

It's probably on the sensor. Do you have a camera store nearby? if you're not comfortable cleaning it yourself then I recommend taking it to a camera store. Most places do it for free or for very cheap.

Ok, thanks. I would do like to do it myself. Do you know of any good tutorials on this by chance?

That's a pretty nasty sensor booger. They usually only show up when you shoot wide open or a sky scene.

I'd have that cleaned before taking any more images (although, I clean my own sensors).

Edit: Here's the method I use. http://www.copperhillimages.com/index.php?pr=tutorials

Thank you.

Ok, got it.

Now you can admire this awesome wallpaper without the spot.

Now that my eye is not drawn to the spot, I see the line in the wallpaper. :mrgreen:

And it's not plumb.

Last week I did a similar excercise, looking for dust on my sensor. It seemed like my rocket blower was just moving it around a little. I cleaned, take a shot, load it up and find it somewhere new every time. At least six times. I got mad, took a break and smoked a cigarette. While doing so, I was just kind of spinning around in my office chair, looking at anything but my camera or computer screen and I saw it. A small imperfection in my wall that when shot out of focus looked just like dust on a sensor. I'm going back to using the sky again.

That's hilarious!
