If the spot doesn't move, this would indicate dirt on the sensor, or on one of the internal components of the sensor. You can't get to these things yourself. You should contact Canon for service.

Don't buy the camera in the US, it isn't worth it.

I loved it! The transitions work well with the rhythm of the music. While it's not very "romantic", it seems real and will provide a nice contrast to other scenes (I imagine).

Shooting a rain effect on a sunny day isn't such a bad idea. In fact, if the rain (in this case provided by sprinkler hoses) isn't lit, you won't see it.
