xf 35mm f2 dust

hello everyone,i bought a xf 35mm f2 lens two months ago.But today i looked into the lens,i found a huge dust in it.I know it's normal that dust get into lens but i don't expect it happen so soon,especially a WR lens which i seldom take it outside and store it properly.I think the warranty don't cover this so i can only live with it.I feel little disappointed about the quality of the lens.Is anyone have this problem ?

It's highly dependent on individual conditions and hard to predict when/how dust can get in. It could have already been there and got dislodged. It might also migrate back into the crevices of your lens at some point.

But why not ask them to clean it? If it's under warranty, I think they might be willing.
