Sensor Cleaning Emergency... - 06-08-2009, 03:24 PM


I sold my 20D to upgrade - which left me w/ my 5D - and a client wants a shot tonight. Trouble is my 5D sensor really needs cleaning.

I tried BestBuy, Walgreens, and Wolf Camera (useless store) and no one has a wet cleaning kit. Is there ANYWHERE I can get a kit in the North Dallas area in the next hour or so...???

Looks like they have it - and are open 'til 7pm...that might be my ticket!!!

Emergency averted - Camera Stop in Plano had a cleaning kit and generic rocket blower. I got out the door for $45.

Took 5 swabs to get the 5D's sensor clean. I knew it was dirty!!!
