What is causing these black spots on my tomato leaves?

I’ve noticed that the both Latah plants have developed black spots on the leaves – it seems to be mainly on the bottom leaves, but some of the top leaves are curling inwards as well. They’ve been a little waterlogged since they were planted out and haven’t got quite as much sunlight as my Urbikanys. Apart from the leaves looking strange, they seem generally healthy.

Anyone know what it is and how / if I can save my poor little plants?

    It has lots of pictures of various conditions and it helped me to figure out what was wrong with my tomatoes (bacterial canker), which enabled me to do more research and figure out that I needed to just pull them out.

    Thanks heaps for that link! I think I’m dealing with “Bacterial Speck” by the pictures – and as I suspected this is most likely due to the amount of rain the plant got exposed to just after I planted it out. Good news is that it doesn’t look too serious – yay!

    Ah, thanks for that. I think I’ve got the same thing. In my case it’s probably from watering the leaves, rather than just the soil.
