If you look back several pages, well maybe just 1-2, you'd find a thread discussing it. This topic has been discussed many, many times.

Oh...never tried that one before but the concept is right. Does reduce floating dust particles in the air...... 1) open up the shower in ur bathroom for 5-10 mins.....dun use heater..just pure cold water and lock the bath room.. 2) move in small table/chair into the bathroom (ur shower shd be turn off by now) 3) bring ur camera....and ur camera blower.. 4) start blowing the sensor.... 5) after done blowing the sensor...keep it back into the bag with the cap lock~  |

That would be a very humid environment to work in...1) open up the shower in ur bathroom for 5-10 mins.....dun use heater..just pure cold water and lock the bath room.. 2) move in small table/chair into the bathroom (ur shower shd be turn off by now) 3) bring ur camera....and ur camera blower.. 4) start blowing the sensor.... 5) after done blowing the sensor...keep it back into the bag with the cap lock~ Even if it does work, it's quite an overkill, as the objective is to clean the sensor to an acceptable level for photography, not to silicone wafer fabrication cleanliness levels! |
