Hello everyone,
I know this isn't a D700 thread but I have a problem. I was cleaning my cameras outside and wondering how it looks inside... So I tried that "Shoot a white wall, f/16, infinity focus, high zoom, auto-levels in PS" method and found some nasty dirty sensors.
Do I clean them with just a dust blower or should I buy some E2? I dont mind spending some money on some nice cleaner but I want to make sure its worth it before I buy it.
I heard awhile ago to use an air compressor rather then a canned air blower since there is some chemical that could fall upon the sensor? Is this true?
I use an airbrush to blow out the sensor and chamber. It uses canned air, which can be a problem if you put the nozzle inside the chamber. If you do get some residue on the sensor, it cleans off easily.
E2 or VisibleDust works great when you need a wet cleaning. BTW, try to clean your camera sensor in a room with little airflow and dust. I clean mine in a bathroom.
