Hi everyone, just need to seek some advice regarding cleaning of sensors.
I spotted a very obvious dust particle thru my OVF, and after changing lens the particle is still there. So from this is concluded that the dust is probably on my mirror. Took some test shots and it didnt turn up on my pictures thus confirming my guess. HOWEVER I managed to find some dark spots on other parts of the picture (instead of the dust spot of my mirror), thus i think there must be dust inside the sensor as well.
Need to use camera this weekend (Anime Festival Asia! Dont miss this event guys!) so dont think i wanna send my camera for cleaning by Sony (scared that they will take weeks to clean) even though its under warranty so decided to clean myself.
Im thinking of buying a lens pen and try to clean my mirror and dust. Just wondering if anyone has tried using lens pen to do sensor cleaning and whether any side effects?
Thanks.
