The lens-barrel unit is dirty or looks scratched.

A lubricating agent is used to ensure that the lens operates smoothly. When the lens is extended, the lubricating agent can make it appear as if the lens-barrel unit is scratched. You can use a soft, dry cloth to wipe the lubricating agent off, if you want. When wiping off the lens-barrel unit, wipe gently taking care you do not twist the unit, or push it in, or pull it out. Note that the lubricating agent is not harmful to humans.
