be very very careful, Were hunting dust bunnies....HEHHEHEHEHE!Comment

yikes, swab the CCD? Why not just just blast it out with a can of air? I've always been able to remove dust with forced air (good 'ole can of air).Comment

I wouldn't touch the sensor. Better off trying with air.

"Do not use any sort of "canned air" for this. It may be too powerful and the types that are liquid driven can "spit" liquid in the gas stream and if that happens you can wave bye-bye to your sensor. They may also freeze the sensor, which again could result in damage."

I've cleaned my D100 sensor a few times using Eclipse cleaning solution and pec pads. Wasn't all that hard.Comment

It's a dirty little secret in the camera industry... just dont tip it upside down and short small bursts.Comment

Yes - just make sure your spray can is upright - you don't want the cold liquid air mix coming out. That will leave a film. To be sure just do a couple of tests bursts to the air. Also - keep the can at a distance from the CCD - you can still get the dust off with a burst from 6 inches away with no problem.Comment

lock up the mirror with a 30 second manual exposure and use a HAND SQUEEZED air tool. NOT canned air. that'll do it

Yeah I second the posts about keeping the duster can a foot or 2 fron the cam. That will provide more than enough to clean the sensor without damaging it. Sometimes those cans out out a cold gas that could ruin a sensor.Comment
