+RonC Posted December 3, 2013 Share Posted December 3, 2013 What's the best way to clean camera sensors? I have dust specks on the QHY5 camera? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Graham Posted December 3, 2013 Share Posted December 3, 2013 Exactly the same way you would clean the sensor on your Cannon Ron. If you have never cleaned the Cannon just google it loads of threads on there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Kheldar Posted December 3, 2013 Share Posted December 3, 2013 Don't do it - just air puffer (not canned) and calibrate out with flats Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+RonC Posted December 3, 2013 Author Share Posted December 3, 2013 Oh? I've got a puffer, thanks Stephen. Are they more prone to scratches than camera's? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Eddy Posted December 3, 2013 Share Posted December 3, 2013 Depends if it has a window on it Ron, if it's got a protection cover then changes are the dirt is on that and you can use special sticky cleaning pads to pick up dirt although changes are you can't get them small enough to fit in the qhy5, I used them on my spc900 and worked a treat .

+RonC Posted December 3, 2013 Author Share Posted December 3, 2013 No window on it Eddy, so a blower it is! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Kheldar Posted December 3, 2013 Share Posted December 3, 2013 Oh? I've got a puffer, thanks Stephen. Are they more prone to scratches than camera's? About equal, but then again I would advise not cleaning a camera sensor If you really have to do it ... pec pads and eclipse fluid. Wet the pad, wipe the surface ONCE then throw it away. Rinse and repeat until done (putting the pad over a kiddies glue stick is a good tip) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+RonC Posted December 3, 2013 Author Share Posted December 3, 2013 Seems a lot better having just blown it, checked on PHD and just a couple of very small bits left so I will leave it at that! Thanks Stephen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
