anyone do their own?
read a pretty detailed article last night but decided to bring it in and have it cleaned properly at our local camera shop so I'm cameraless(is that a word...LOL) for the night....should have it back tomorrow morning
I don't do my own. I'm sure you get the point across by saying you're cameraless, but another way of wording it might be sans camera, which would probably be the way I'd describe it.
It doesn't sound like you're going to be sans camera for very long and that's a very good thing.
Sounds like something I need to have done to my camera too! Now that we're back from our trip, I'm noticing some spots in some of my photos and some filmy edges. I probably need my entire lens cleaned!

cleaning the lens you can do with some lens cleaning paper and liquid....cleaning the sensor is only necessary if you change lenses....that's the only time dust will get in there...

this is a shot of my camera sensor before and after it was cleaned....a lot of the dust was microscopic but showed up on prints in most situations.....only 2 spots could not be removed but luckily I don't see them in any pics that I print....a lot of it was probably picked up on our trip to Florida at Fort DeSoto Beach, trying to use a blower probably made the matter worse....now I'm a lot more careful whenever I change lenses
Interesting thought GTO.
The Sony DSLR cameras have some sort of sensor cleaner built in which vibrates the dust off.
I have a problem with dust getting into the circular polarizing filter. I would pay to have that done.
I use cans of air, and Lint free, nonabrasive, optic wipe pads from Rainbow Technology corp. to keep lenses and filters clean.
Know the piece well. You must have been a good student. This can't be sold with a mechanical rendition. Very well conceived and constructed collage. As a retired music teacher, I love the attention to the counting and the H.T. 5 all the way.
