SX260, same scratch situation here, I believe.

Gray-ish dark spot at 12 o'clock, 1/5 of the way down from top of picture. Visible vertical "something" on the lens, 1/8 of an inch long...

Does no show when in mid to high zoom, or in Movie mode (which is what I like about the SX260, until I grow up, I guess..!)

I never approached any manufacturer for warranty claim, but I may need to do that.

Can my brick-and-mortar good-size independent shop help me?

Sorry to hear about that. The spot will mainly be visibly on small aperture, bright wideangle shots.

Not sure what the warranty in your country says. Go to your Canon website. There should be advice how to handle such complaints. Good luck.
