I am new here and this is my first attempt at posting. I have a Canon SX-280 P & S and my usual setting is "auto." But often I get these spots or "orbs" on my pictures especially with this camera. Here's an example taken in Queenstown Tasmania over a year ago. The engine was still in its stall and my camera was pointed inside with the sun outside the building. With short videos I tend to get these spots a lot.
Use a hood. Don't use a filter.
