I got the Arctic butterfly and the orange swab thingies. No visible dust! But I still have a couple of spots that may be drop marks rather than dust. I need to try the wet clean a second time. One side issue found by Alastair and I over here trying out the M Coders is that you can get ink smear around the lens mount which has to be dissolved to be removed. This makes me suspicious about any fluid in that area. (We both gave up on the M Coders).

At home, I opened the lenspen SensorClear, and cleaned the sensor. I shot a picture of the clouds and was appalled that the image was even worse after using the sensor pen. Early this week, I ordered a sensor swab and eclipse kit, I just used it and in two minutes it was shiny bright. -- Regards, Sonny http://www.sonc.com Natchitoches, Louisiana USA _______________________________________________ Leica Users Group.
