I tried the sensor cleaning... no effect. I've got cleaning disabled on startup / shutdown at moment.
Shop assistant was convinced it's moisture spots, but without seeing the pics - simply because sensor clean off hadn't worked.

That might be the problem.
The built-in Sensor cleaning should always be set to on.
Because it shakes of dust quite well, while it is dry.
If dust stays too long on your sensor and gets humid (coming back in with the camera from a long trip in the cold - condensation) it can't be shaked of so easily.
You better have the sensor cleaned by someone in a shop if you have never done it before. Ask them, and they will show you how to do it.
Each time I change a lens, I switch the camera off and on (yeah I know, one should anyway), to make it shake of the dirt. And I have by far less problems with spot than compared to my old cam that doesn't has a dust shaker.
