Sensor
Cleaning Procedure |
|||
Note: Cleaning the sensor has gotten to become a necessity. You now have many
choices for sensor cleaning. Please review these choices and the companies
behind them very carefully. Some companies list no phone number or other
contact info other than an email address. None have
the backing of any camera manufacturer. None have bothered
to submit their product to any manufacturer to test. None offer live tech support or other help. None state the
conditions under which their products are made. None have been
selling swabs for as long ! One company even claims they were
the first with cleaning products - they did not exist in 2003 !!!! Carefully read the information from the few that DO offer information : Notice how their wording is strangely identical to ours !!! Trust your sensor to Photographic Solutions, Inc. We INVENTED sensor cleaning, in 1998 ! And have been in business since 1983 . |
