Subject: Cleaning Sensors
Or more specifically the sensor in my *istD.
Is this a do-at-home project or something best left to professionals?
If I can do it myself, how?
If I take it to a shop, what's a reasonable price?
Thanks!
This make people cringe, but I lock the mirror up and shoot the sensor with
canned gas.
It seems to work, and I haven't hurt anything yet.
I mentioned this on ForumsNeurotica and got soundly thrashed for
recommending a cleaning method that would surely wreck the camera, so I
challenged the good people there to come up with one single instance where
they could verify canned gas wrecking a camera.
The closest I got was a guy who met a guy coming out of a camera store who
had apparently done some damage to his camera while cleaning it, but it
wasn't really verifiable that the canned gas was the culprit...
