Try Quicktime to play, it works on mine.

I tried a couple of times and the 'marks' are still there when the aperture is set to f22 or above. I followed the advise such as turning the camera face down to avoid dirt etc but it doesn't work... In fact i seems to get more 'marks'... :( The sensor looks clean from my naked eyes...

I had the 18-200kit lens too. How do you find it? I find that the zoom from 135mm onwards is not effective at all... at least to my eyes.

I'm going to try to air blow the sensor... first time trying it. But why LED touch light? Normal one can?

Thanks. I dropped an email to CSC over the weekend and a CSC staff called me this afternoon. He told me too that it is normal to have dust inside the lens, but he not sure about that 'bubble'. To be safe, he asked me to bring it back for checking (since it is less than 2 weeks old).

Need another advise from you: I recently bought a EF50mm f1.4 lens. When i look into the lens (w/o the camera), i saw many 'dusts' inside it which i can't reach. One of them looks like a 'bubble' and as it is quite reflective. Is this normal or is the lens defective? Thanks in advance.

Mine is a 500D which has a self cleaning function, but it doesn't seems to work as the spot remains on the same place. Its not that serious though as it only appears with aperture setting f22 ~ 36. I just avoided that range for now. Thanks.

Yep. But the kit II lens (18mm - 200mm) is not too bad... except abit heavy :) how do i insert picture here???

Hi Snoweagle, Need your advise. My new 500D (2 mths old, never clean before) showed 4 faint black marks whenever i set the aperture at f22 or above, regardless of which lens i used. It never appear at bigger aperture setting. Is this the case of what you mentioned "dusts are more...

Newbie here. Bought a EOS 500D Kit II in Jul 09 from Song Brothers (Funan) at $1,900 with plus some free gifts... :) Hey, I can take moon shots with this lens!

Just got a EF50mm f1.4 about 2 weeks ago. Realised that there is a 'bubble' within the lens (thought its a reflection when i checked the lens, but its not), which cannot be cleaned off. Pictures taken are ok though. Any idea if this is normal or if this is a lens defect? Any advise would be...
