    Hello,im a pleased owner of the new sony hx20v ,magnific camera, I bought it 2 month ago from a local dealear in romania.So the camera is amazing especially on auto mode inteligent+ but a few day ago i notice 2 spots in the low left of the screen and i realized after i closer inspection that there are a few dust particles in the lens system.. a big problem as i know, my experience is over 5 years in this field(dslr and others camera).the spots are also visible in photos and movies, more at high zoom ranges.

  The camera is under warranty(has 2 years) was bought in 6.2012 , so if i send it to a sony center they will clean it inside or they will change it with a new one?

  The other question is : the little button wich is placed near the base of the lens system(the one wich looks like a dslr lens remover) have any function or is just for design.

  And if anyone can post here a service manual for this camera!!!

 

Thanks .

    Hi there, welcome to the Sony Forums

     

    From your picture it seems pretty ovbious that there is dust in the camera, probably on the sensor (which does happen in non-removable lens cameras) and while it is a little more difficult to clean than a DSLT, I suspect a warranty repair will be authorised, rather than a replacement camera.

     

    The button on the base of the lens housing is a bit of a mystery. I suspect it is as you suggest, a design feature to make it visually similar to a removable-lens camera. It certainly won't let you remove the HX20V's lens, which is fixed and moulded to the camera body.

     

    Service manuals are not generally available for Sony cameras; sorry I can't be of any help there.

     

    Cheers

    Mick
