Hi guys.
As most would be aware, I use a kodak easy-share 6340 for astrophotography. About 18 mths after I bought it I noticed like a spot of dust (black speck) on a photo of jupiter I took which was most annoying. This black spot is still there. It doesn't arise from dust on the eyepiece or even the camera lens. I usually position the object (planet) to one side of the spec/dust on the LCD when I shoot.
It developed another black spot about a week ago. This completely stuffs the final image up after you've stacked heaps of photos.
My question is: possibly these spots (dust?) are obviously being deposited on the sensor of the camera? Does this kind of camera even have a sensor such as a CCD?? Being a point & shoot camera you can't take the lens off to clean the sensor.
One COULD take it to bits (gulp!) to get at the sensor....

Not game to do that!!
Not sure how to fix this problem!
Any advise??
