I have been taking pictures from my Zfc camera for a few months now, but I didn't have any problem with it. Recently I am seeing black blotches in all of the pictures. What is the reason for it? The issue is not with the display coz the images have the blotches even after transfer.

Seeing images would help.

 

Do you see the blotched through the viewfinder and on the display screen after taking the picture?

If the spots are dark, it could be dirt/oil on the sensor.

If the spots do not show before the image is taken and recorded to the Card- could be an electronics problem.

since i am one once in blue moon and only few people that have mirrorless body we need to see picture to help you. and also need setting and what type of photo your taking along with time and day if was cloudy or lowlight issue. also if have black spots could mean you have dust marks on lens. if that is true you need clean the sensor or have pro clean it. when taking lens off buddy you need to point camera sensor facing down or away from wind blowing

I suppose you should remove dust from the surface of the image sensor using [Clean image sensor]. After using a blower to remove dust or lint from the lens surface, gently wipe the lens with a lens cleaning cloth.

Still if the pictures are showing blotches then, you need to update your firmware license. Also, if the clicked images are important to you then you can use any photo repair tools like stellar or picdoctor. Although, you need to fix the camera by updating the firmware to avoid future issues.
