    Could anyone help me identify what this stain in the photo could be? Before it was just the smaller dot, now this track is coming out too...
    Could it be dirt on the sensor? Is there any way to fix it?

    Well it looks like a hair. It's time to clean your sensor.

    ++ totally can confirm, I have seen these multiple times on my first DSLR body years ago. Very tiny fine hair or thread.
