    Have I screwed the sensor on a camera I'm about to sell?

    That certainly helped! What really threw me was the fact that the bottom of the sensor is the top of the image. I carefully wiped across the top of the sensor where the marks were with the APS-C swap and, of course, the top of the image was unchanged! doh!

    Thanks for all your help guys, panic over and nice clean sensor! If anybody wants a D800 look out on the for sale threads, it's coming up soon.

    Thanks guys, I must admit I have been using APS-C swabs, as that is all I had, so I have ordered some full frame ones.

    Thank you, should I be able to see them? my short vision is getting bad as get older! I was surprised that they remained exactly the same after another wipe across the top of the sensor?

    Hi guys, I have recently bought a new D850 and a 24-70 2.8 VR and thought I'd sell my trustee D800 and 24-70 2.8 ED. I have been getting the boxed out etc and thought I'd give the sensor a quick wet clean using the method I have always used (A new pec pad wrapped around a swab with a drop of...

    Thanks, I got a response on Friday saying they will "look into it" but it's still not here. Paid on Amex using Pay Pal so yes, it is protected. I checked the reviews and they were generally pretty good but I am currently wishing I'd used a normal shop or even bought one second hand.

    ::ty: for your friendly and helpful response. :D I didn't want it next day but was expecting some response and a delivery within a week, however I have just realised their website says 4-7 business days not calendar days. I received a tracking number today so all looking good so far.
