[Author Prev] [Author Next] [Thread Prev] [Thread Next] [Author Index] [Topic Index] [Home] [Search]I do have this magnifying hood thing which fits over my head for spotting prints in the old days and I put a mini flashlight in my mouth and take long hard looks at my sensor; which lets not forget has a glass cover and give it blasts of air with a bulb till I don't see no culprits on my cover glass usually after I've noticed one on a pic on my laptop screen at 1:1. I find the culprit and take it out of there. I blow with my lips the backs of my lenses off before I put one in the camera. Being carful not to spit on it too much. And I keep the area around the mount clean. The lens. The camera. No goobers on my pix. -------------------- Mark William Rabiner Photography mark at rabinergroup.com > From: Aram Langhans <leicar at q.com> > Reply-To: Leica Users Group <lug at leica-users.org> > Date: Thu, 23 Sep 2010 08:58:51 -0700 > To: Leica Users Group <lug at leica-users.org> > Subject: Re: [Leica] S2 Awesomeness > > Mark.
