if i'm not mistaken, your camera still under warranty should be free. but standard cleaning i dunno how much it costs. buy a cleaning kit and clean yourself lor, lenspen biggrin.gif

lenspen i already bought but that 1 for lens only lor..not for sensor@body

n lenspen only suitable cleaning external glass only.. not internal...
my lens got lil dust also but very2 tiny n not effect pic but i would want clean as possible and need service since nvr service it since bought.

i used blower many time to blow the dust at my sensor also cnnot remove the dust.

so, my only solution go service at service center since my warranty expired next months.
but i didnt know izit free or not. so asking here 1st l before go service center

Cleaning needs money even its under warranty... but beware... they dun have a fixed price for cleaning process....
They might say... there's dust in ur body... which requires to dissemble the whole thing to clean.

ok.. thats mean i need to go ask there la... but i read somewhere it will cost u more cheaper if its underwarranty.. but i forgot where i read it.
thanks bro notworthy.gif

i remember reading someone who sent for cleaning before warranty expire and it's free, at the nikon service center at BTS la, not the damansara 1.

i search at other forum and they said nikon only give free cleaning until Feb 2010 only..
cos after that 3rd party company will take care of the cleaning and will charge rm20 for under warranty and rm80 for out of warranty.

dont know true o not.. just wanna share
