Cleaning th he sensor DO O NOT CON NTACT CLEAN SENSSOR UNLEESS AB BSOLUTELLY NECESSARY Identiffying Debriss Debris on the image sensor or optical components w will appear as a darkened area or smudge on the image that doees not move as the t camera is moved. m Do not confuse this wiith a pixel defeect which will apppear as a distinct point.
Locatin ng Debris Before attempting to clean the imagee sensor, it is im mportant to firsst determine that the problem m is due to debris on n the sensor wiindow. To do th his you should be viewing a unniform image, such as a piecee of paper, with the camera. Debriss will appear ass a dark spot orr dark region thhat does not moove as the cameera is moved. To determine that t the debris is not on the caamera lens, rottate the lens independent of tthe camera. If the spot mo oves as the lenss moves, then t he object is on the lens -not oon the image seensor- and therefore cleaning is no ot required. If the camera ha s an IR filter, t hen rotate the IR filter. If thee object moves th hen the particlee is on the IR filter not the sennsor. If this is the case removve the IR filter ccarefully using a small s flat head screw driver. Clean both sidees of the IR filtter using the saame techniquess as explaineed below for thee sensor window.
DO O NOT TOUCCH ANY OPT PTICS WITH FINGERS. OIL FROM M FINGERS CAN N DAMAGE FRAGILE O OPTICAL CO OATINGS.
Cleanin ng with Air If it is deetermined that debris is on the sensor windoow, then removve the camera leens, and blow tthe sensor window directly with cllean compresseed air. If canneed air is used, ddo not shake or tilt the can priior to blowing the sensor. Vieew a live image with the cameera after blowinng. If the debris is still there, repeat this process. Repeat the prrocess a number of times with increased inteensity until it is determined th hat the particulaate cannot be dislodged. d If this is the case thhen proceed too the contact cleeaning techniqque.
Contacct Cleaning Only usee this method as a last resort. Use 99% laborratory quality isopropyl alcoh hol and clean cootton swabs. Dampen D the sw wab in the alcoh hol and gently w wipe the sensor in a single strroke. Do not reeuse the same swab. Do not wip pe the sensor if the sensor andd swab are bothh dry. You mustt wipe the sensoor quickly after imm mersion in the alcohol, or glue from the swaab will contaminnate the sensor window. Repeat this process until the debriss is gone. If thiis process fails to remove the debris, then coontact AVT.
