Eclipse, or E2? Anyone tried it yet? I've finally got enough dust spots that I could use a cleaning. I had one bunny that took ~20 manual activations of the cleaner to move, then it only moved, plus a few smaller sports. My rocket air helped, as did the dust data removal deal, but it's still not perfect when stopped down for landscapes.

I checked here:

Camera	Model               ECL or E2
Canon EOS 5D Mark II (FL)* Eclipse

and it sounds like it's the same old eclipse I've had all along? Anyone jumped in with it yet? I've used to wet cleanings, I just don't want to use the wrong type of fluid....

Thanks!

Only some older 5D's had a problem with Eclipse. I have a 2008 built D5 and have used Eclipse on it quite a bit (it was really covered in hard to remove crud). Sensor filter looks fine. The E2 fluid just makes it harder to clean, in my brief experience with it (they sent me the E2, by mistake).


Bohdan - I may be, and probably am, completely wrong.
