Hey,

I've just noticed today a blemish on the images im taking, regardless of which lens is used so im assuming its internal to the camera. 

Potentially the weirdest bit is that its not visible on video, only on still images. Has anyone experienced this and know what might be causing it? I don't want to be going in and messing with the sensors and mirrors and stuff really. So looking for advice?

What @Greybeard said.

With these cameras, you do not have to worry about locking up the mirror, etc. to clean things up. These cameras do not have any of that stuff. Generally, if it can be cleaned by you, the worst you will have to do is take a few dozen or so images in a row, at once — to warm the sensor up a bit — take the lens off and move a swab back and forth on the sensor. Put the lens back on, all done. Note: for cameras with IBIS, manufacturers say clean it with the camera turned on, otherwise, clean it with the camera turned off.

p.s. Welcome to the forum. And, if @Greybeard thinks it is something you can clean, but you really are squeamish about doing that, most camera shops can do that for you.

Here's the blemish, couldnt attach anything to original post for some reason. Yeah always in the same spot. But its so weird that the blob gets brighter/dimmer depending on the mode used and with video it seems to be totally absent. @Greybeard

    • Somehow my shutter fell off my X-a5. On Amazon, there are a number of camera shutter buttons for Fuji cameras. My first thought was that I could just purchase one of these and be ready to go. But after checking these out, it appears that these shutter buttons are for cameras with a screw hole in the shutter button and the X-a5 doesn't have this kind of shutter and even if it did, the shutter is gone.  I called Fuji and they wouldn't even discuss it or accept my photo above to view it, they said I had to send it in which I'm not ready to do. One more update... I just stuck a pin through the center opening of the small center hole and the shutter activated and took a picture. Seems like there could possibly be something to attach there, like a replacement release to remedy this. Based of my explanation and what you can see on this scan, can someone advise me what I need to purchase or what I need to do to resolve this? Thank you.

    • Yes Is some small amount leftover from the spot i cleaned. Inside only very less point of dust,yes my be are from manufacture Is very microscopic. anyway on pictures i not see dust and i not see the spot i clean. thankyou so much for your reply Is beautiful im Happy.Have a good day
    • Are you certain the spot is on the inside and not some small amount leftover from the spot you cleaned? Maybe try a different brand of lens cleaner, but make sure it is safe for lenses so that the lens coatings are not removed. Even weather resistant lenses can get dust inside, the seals can only keep out so much dust and zoom lenses are known to get dusty on occasion. More so than prime lenses do. Weather resistant means more sealing, but achieving perfect sealing is tough to get. It is also possible the dust has been there from the time it was manufactured and you are only now noticing because of the white dot. Does the dust show up in any of your photos? As far as cleaning cost goes, your local camera repair shop will be able to give you some estimates, prices will be different depending on where you are.
