See the... noisy corona to the main dot? I dont believe that was there like.. 10 minutes ago, and now its there. No lenses but stock NOVA X100. Seems fishy, or my memory sucks.. Put E2's in it.

take a cotton swab and shove it into the aperture, move it around, maybe use some water or alcohol

Don't ever use water, or microfiber...

Cotton swabs seem to work well, but you should use a lens cleaning kit if you can.
