Spot on camera lens

[Johnny Cakes1]

Just noticed using the Rear camera a small black smudge/spot in the image. From researching it seems like it could be dust on the sensor.
I took apart the phone and cleaned the glass and blew compressed air all over the camera sensor unit itself, but it didn't help.
Also tried tapping on the phone, banging it lightly to see if it was just a piece of dust.. but nothing helps.

Visibly i cannot see anything on the camera glass or lens.
Anyone else see this yet on their V10?

thanks

It may be a damaged sensor. I would call LG to see what they can do.

Dust normally looks like what you would see in the attached image
