I have a number of lenses for my a550 but I get a number of water spots when shooting with my el cheapo Sony SAL1855. I think I have narrowed it down to that lens but have tried cleaning the front of the lens and both sides of the clear filter and the spots seem to continue. I'm afraid to clean the inner part of the lens and wouldn't know how to clean inside the camera on the mirror or whatever. Any suggestions.

Does anyone else have an issue with excessive spotting on photos with their mirrorless camera? I have a Sony Alpha a7 iii used mainly with a single E-mount G-series lens with a Hoya DMC UV filter... But in recent months I've noticed that I am editing out dozens of spots from marks - on the lens or perhaps from the camera. I've tried cleaning the filter, the lens, blowing out dust from the other end of the lens/inside camera but a lot of these marks/spots remain. I rarely change lenses. I previously used Canon DSLR cameras & lenses and never had the problem to the extent I am having now. Any ideas? Is this a 'feature' of mirrorless cameras??

Hi Guys, First post ever in a forum of any kind, so here I go. I bought the Sony A7 iii about 2 months ago, I have shot only a couple of times, and i had found that it is a great camera, I really love it , but when I went to my editing room , after a long while I had notice that my footage have some kind of weird spots, I didn't notice at the moment because I was shooting through the view finder , So yeah i have this spots in my footage and I don't know, if it is the sensor or lens that I should clean it , or some kind of malfunction in the lens or sensor , so if you please guys can you help me , I will really appreciate it . I am going to attach a screenshot so you guys can see what I'm talking about. One of the pictures is just the normal footage and the other one it is just a little more with contrast so you can see what I am talking about. I need also to clarify that I have never touch or clean any think inside the camera like the sensor. Thanks for any help or recommendation you can give me. Azon
