sensor/mirror cleaning
do any of you guy's clean the sensor and the mirror in DSLR camera's? i have a nikon d80 that has a few small specks on the screen.
i clean mine atleast once a month but i dont touch it, i just use the mirror lock-up option and blow it out with one of these.....

you want to do mine? i have like 2 or 3 little specks.
find out where your mirror lock up is and blow it out dude, its not hard. get a rocket blower and then everytime it happens you can deal with it. i got dust on my sensor at santa run, went to the car and dealt with it. if i didnt know what to do i woulda been fucked.Originally Posted by boostedb16
yeah, do like chad said. lol.
does wolf camera do cleaning? cuz i have about three spots but i dont know if they're on the mirror. i know they're in the body cuz i looked through the veiw finder w/o the lens on.
ok chad, i will see about getting one of those rocket thing's. does wolf sell them?
Take it to CRJ in Norcross or Peachtree Camera in Marietta. Both are certified Canon and Nikon repair centers. Camera cleanings are $50 at Peachtree and I think $60 at CRJ.
good looks in the info man.. i needed that, my sensor is filthy has about 12 spots on it and i already tried the mirror lock up like Chad said..
I work at CRJ. It's $49 and a 24hr turn around
Sweet, good to know. I'll be coming in sometime soon!I work at CRJ. It's $49 and a 24hr turn around
I use the mirror lock up and the compressed air cans. Works well for me
Ahh ok, yall lowered the price. Last time I had one cleaned there they charged me $60, I did talk them down to $50 but that was the last time I went there so good to know the price has come back down.I work at CRJ. It's $49 and a 24hr turn around
Yeah. Once the new owners took over, we started charging $49 for a 24-hr turn around and $59 for same day service.Ahh ok, yall lowered the price. Last time I had one cleaned there they charged me $60, I did talk them down to $50 but that was the last time I went there so good to know the price has come back down.

Compressed air on an image sensor....good luck with that bro. Over time youll start to see something
It's really not that hard, and dust on the mirror/bottom of pentaprism? don't worry about that shit, just keep the sensor clean, the other dust doesn't effect images.
DX has a sensor blower for $3, I bought it ans it works WELL.
^^ Yeah, I drew a frame of a man running on each fan blade. That is him running at idle
i was at target the other day, and they have some shitty low end dslr's and the mirrors and internal things were COVERED in fingerpritns. it was pretty nasty
yea i have seen d40's at wal mart that had everything you could imagine in them. one had a sucker stuck in it.
omg. some people have zero respect for shit. wow. i actually lol'd when i read that though.
i have a d90 at work and someone jacked the lens from it
you have to see the condition of that mirror. it drives me crazy
hell my boos come's in with his roll around case that has a d3, two d80's, a d50 and about 6 lense's that cost about $1200.00-$2000.00 each and all of his shit is always dusty as hell. He does send them off to get cleaned but it looks like if he would be alittle more carefull. his equipment would not get like that. when you are rich, i guess it dont matter.
Well if you buy equiptment like that, it;s designed to put up witha lot of abuse, so maybe he just uses it where it's supposed ot be used, hiking, boating, rain storms, dusty windy places etc?
^^ Yeah, I drew a frame of a man running on each fan blade. That is him running at idle
that would make since but really he only use's it to do wedding's and family portrait's.
Just dropped mine off at Peachtree Camera Repair today, $50 for the cleaning in case anyone was curious.
Hmm, repost?
Hmm, repost?
Oops, my bad.
Just went and picked up my camera from PCR. I wasn't expecting them to clean the outside too! It's in this plastic bag and almost looks like it's been sterilized lol. It's so clean that I ALMOST don't want to use it haha.
Yeah they clean it up, I was very impressed with their service.
