Hi i have some problem with X-H2S and brand new 16-55 f/2.8 when i took a photo on f/22 i found on pictures a larg dust spot which disappearing on highest values like f8, f/5.6 etc. I also checked on other lens like 70-300 if its problem with dust on camera sensor but it wasn't. So i think it's probably dust participle inside the lens? Live with that or return it to the shop?

Or is it possible that lens with wider focal unveils dust spot on sensor more than tele lens?

Another question is is it possible that dust can be located between sesnsor and glass which protetcs it.

Please show the following photos of the sky or your monitor with a large white area. It can be out of focus if necessary as long as it's white frame to frame:

16-55 f/2.8 @ f16

70-300 @ f16

Include all EXIF data.  An out of camera jpeg is best yet a RAW converted to jpeg with no processing will do.

It possible that dust can be located between sensor and glass which protects it yet this has nothing to do with what is happening.
