I’ve been having issues on my K-5 II with a bunch of sensor dust that doesn’t show up on the dust check, but which shows up in the sky whenever I use a moderately high f/stop.
Unfortunately my $40 lollipop sensor cleaner has disappeared. Since the dust wasn’t showing up on dust alert, I stopped my 18-250 all of the way down, aimed it at empty sky then cranked contrast, clarity etc up in lightroom to show the dust: https://www.flickr.com/photos/ellarsee/sets/72157644202562425/ Has anyone else run across problems like this on the K-5 II? I bought it toward the end of the production run last august, so it should be way past the early K-5 sensor stain issues. I don’t normally shoot at f/45 but I’ve seen it even at only moderately high f/stops, like f/16 with my 8mm. -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
