sensor cleaning
- Thread starter KRO
- Start date
Do it yourself - lots of threads here on how-to...just buy the right solution and sensor swabs and be careful - it's not as fraught an experience as you'd think...the bypass filter is actually pretty tough unless you scrub it with an old t-shirt (as someone here did recently...lol).

I did it for the first time myself recently...

Noting that my local Jessops matched the Amazon price £24.59.
It took a few loops of cleaning and testing the sensor for dust ( camera set to f36, close focus, non-wide angle and then shooting a white computer screen and then pumping up the brightness and contrast in post processing). This link shows how inspect for dust http://www.cleaningdigitalcameras.com/inspecting.html and my results were similar to their screen shots before and after.
