I can’t remember blogging about this before but my third digital camera has developed the same exact problem as the first two. Basically it’s dirt on the sensor that leaves dark blotches on photos taken in bright light (i.e. outside.) It’s out for repair and will probably not be back for a few weeks. (Replacement wasn’t an option as it was last time since Sony is no longer making that model.) I’ll be borrowing a camera for my trips in the mean time but nothing from my day-to-day activities such as vanity license plates for the foreseeable future. 🙁
