Maxbas Posted December 20, 2014 Share #1  Posted December 20, 2014 Advertisement (gone after registration) Hi, Today I cleaned my M2. It had a fair amount of dust in the camera, so I used a rocket blower to clean it up. Unfortunately now I see dust or a little hair in the focus patch. Could I have moved it there with the rocket blower? If so, how can I get it out again? I tried to take a picture. I'm grateful for any help or advise. Welcome, dear visitor!

250swb Posted December 20, 2014 Share #2 Â Posted December 20, 2014 Yes it could have got there with the Rocket Blower. I have always said that they are a bad idea for cleaning digital sensors because you don't know where the dust goes, further into the camera or out of the camera, but it also applies to film cameras. Â On the other hand, keep blowing, it may dislodge. Â Steve Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Posted December 20, 2014 Share #3 Â Posted December 20, 2014 After cleaning my M3 I had a very similar problem. The dust was on the framelines, just behind the frameline illumination window. Â If you could somehow get some air right there it would help. I disassembled the top of the M3. That's also a way of cleaning it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maxbas Posted December 20, 2014 Author Share #4 Â Posted December 20, 2014 Thanks for your feedback. No Idea how to move it since I don't know really where the hair is. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
