Sorry for interrupting,
I just bought a G1 and after taking some shots, I discovered a fixed "grey patch" in my photos. It didn't appear for my photos taken at F3.5 to F6, but for any photo above F8 it became noticeable, especially when using F16 and above.
So I brought the camera back to Alan Photo and the they checked the lens and found a particle or maybe a chip on the INSIDE of the lens? At first we thought it was on the outside, but after trying to blow, suction and rub the particle away, that was when we discovered the particle is actually inside the lens.
When I asked they said I would have to take the lens back to Panasonic Service Center at Bukit Merah? :mad2:
Has anyone encountered this before and does anyone know the best way I can quickly solve this problem?
