It looks like it is on the sensor - a blower should remove this. Make sure it is a rocket blower type that has a avlve that helps stop dust being taken in, and then blown out putting even more dust marks!!

@ tyronet/ Stan

Unfortunately, those dark bands are a feature of this type of variable ND filter. The wider the angle lens, the worse the banding. It means that widening the lens angle means that the amount of 'stopping' you can do reduces.

I have a 67mm one from 7dayshop and nearly sent it back because of this, until I discovered this was a feature.

Below is a table I found somewhere showing the limitations;
12mm: ND4 to ND8 3 stop operating range
15mm: ND4 to ND16 4 stop operating range 

18mm: ND4 to ND32 5 stop operating range

24mm: ND4 to ND64 6 stop operating range

35mm: ND4 to ND125 7 stop operating range

40mm: ND4 to ND175 7.5 stop operating range
50mm: ND4 to ND250 8 stop operating range
70mm: ND4 to ND350 8.5 stop operating range
100mm: ND4 to ND500 9 stop operating range

Hope that helps

Andy
