"x mark" in dslr images was created by Fermidox
Hi, I've noticed what looks like an 'x mark' appearing at the same position in several of my dslr images; the regular shape seems to suggest it's part of the camera's internals, almost like an AF point, rather than any outside agent such as dust etc. Below is just a random crop of two stars in Aquila, greatly enlarged in order to make the annoying 'x mark' quite obvious. Any suggestions? Thanks.

Just on the computer Dave. It's a Canon EOS 1100D and looking at the manual here it actually seems like an inverse of the 'Flash Exposure lock button', as arrowed below:

Very strange, if you open the images with Windows Photo Viewer do you see that mark?
