Hey guys,

I'm having dust issues with my 30D. I've cleaned the sensor using Sensor Swab, but can't get rid of the dust from the edges of the sensor.

Can you suggest any other product / method of cleaning ?

Cheers for your help,


John.

Try one of the sensor brushes like the "arctic butterfly", they should remove most of the dust, for "welded on" dust you need to use the wet swabs and concentrating more on the edges of the sensor.

I usually accept a certain amount of dust spots and erase them in the software.
