16-55 f/2.8 dust inside lens


intercontinental

Recommended Posts

Hi, i bought 3 months ago a new copy of 16-55 f/2.8 and after taking some shots on f16-f22 i found on photos big spot which looks like dust spot. I thought that was dust on a sensor but checked it on another camera body and spot is still present. So i carefully check last element on the lens and found behind it (inside lens) little spot of dust or something else. My question is to live with that or try send lens to fuji service center ?

Very rare, but lens is WR and Red Badge so it should not happen with brand new lens. Maybe i'll try send it to Fuji service center. I had similar problem with new x-h2s which had a smudge visible on photos even on very wide apertures and send it to fuji becasue blowing and cleaning by swabs not helped. They change filter on the sensor under warranty and now everything is ok.

Blue Jays are tricky to get good photos like you have, they tend to fly away as soon as the lens cap comes off 😀.
    • I own the Fuji X-T1 and X-H1. I own several Fuji lenses but I tend to use 3rd party vintage manual glass which I find quite enjoyable to use. I'm testing a photo here taken from my Flickr account that showcases the Tokina 100-300mm Zoom lens with 1.4 extender.

    • Forgot to mention another thing. Mine does not work if I plug the USB cord into a USB hub. It only works if I plug the cord into one of the USB ports on my computer itself (an iMac). This surprises me because I think there's a hub built into the computer itself, which is how the computer has multiple USB ports in the first place. I think it was somebody here that suggested I try that -- sorry I don't remember who!
    • On another forum someone suggested spraying some electrical contact cleaner into the wheel but the Fuji tech said that could risk frying the rest of the cameras electrical so I haven't tried that.
    • I have an x100VI with 1.01 firmware - did a reset already and didnt solve issue I am about to describe. Can you all see if your camera does this: Switch to C mode, step down to f16 and then press shutter half way. Does your screen go dark? I have tried playing will all settings (have had the following so quite familiar with the menus: x100, x100f, XT-2, X-Pro 2, XT-3) , only happens in C mode. If you find this can you report to Fuji @ digitalinfo@fujifilm.com. They told me they had not seen this before and that it was normal behavior because the shutter is closing, but the shutter closes in S mode as well.
