Hi everyone! Do you think it is possible to clean the dust from this R5 viewfinder? Can it be done easily at home or should it be sent for assistance? Thanks in advance for your kind reply! 😊

Hello! I currently have an X2 and a TL2, of which I love the both of them for different uses. I absolutely love my X2 for being able to just put it in its body case and then go out for a walk, travel, etc. With that said, I've noticed that there's a couple of dust spots on the sensor that are very apparent by f16. I wanted to ask if it's possible to even clean the sensor? I've reached out to Leica and they said they won't do any work on that because there's "no replacement parts available". Then, they offered me a discount on two other cameras if I wanted to give them my X2. Not sure if they were just giving me a hard time or not about cleaning it. Please let me know how to go about getting it cleaned or if there's anyone reputable in the US who is capable of cleaning it. Thank you, in advance!

My Tele Elmarit M 90 shows these marks when inspecting under a certain angle. It looks like dried water behind the front-element of the lens. It does not show in photos but still it concerns me. Is this serviceable? Have you ever seen something like this?

Hi there. Today while taking photos with my MP I realized some kind of liquid had dropped on the back of my camera. It had been dried before I noticed it. As a reflex I immediately clean the thing but the same stuff had also snuck on to the light seal cloth that covers the parameters of the back door. How can I clean the residue on the light seal? Or should I bother? I am afraid of the possibility of the strange liquid damaging the light seal.

With mirrorless cameras exposing the sensor whenever a lens is changed, dust and other particles can become attached to the sensor. as the sensors tend to heat up with use, I wonder if particles can become 'baked on'. The question I have is, how frequently do people clean their camera's sensor? And how do you clean your sensor, do you just uses a blower, a brush, wet clean with swab or a sticky gel like Eyelead? I believe that my ageing 'rocket' blower, where the bulb is made of rubber, is decaying and actually deposited fine particles on the sensor when I used it. How can I check, and what is the design life of a rubber blower brush? Some spots on my SL2 sensor took quite some removing with an alcohol-based wet cleaning kit and gel-based Eyelead.
