Eclipse + Sensor Swabs: It Works!
I bought a bottle of Eclipse and a bunch of Sensor Swabs a while ago thinking that I would use it often to clean my D200′s CCD.
Many months after I got the sensor cleaner, I never got to use it…not even once because the Giottos air blower was more than adequate to rid of the dusts that accumulate in the sensor. I was beginning to think that I should have not bought the sensor cleaner in the first place…
When I bought the used D2X, I never realized how dirty the sensor was until I took studio shots with a white background. Try as I might with the Giottos blower, I could not remove the sensor dusts.
To make the long boring story short, I ended up using the Eclipse and Sensor Swabs. I was as scared as a wet kitten when I did the procedure…
Just after a few minutes, I was done. When I took test shots with the ExpoDisc, there are still a couple of dust specks left, but I figured I could live with it.
Moral lesson of the day: Sensor cleaning is not that hard…and Eclipse + Sensor Swabs works!
