tobey bilek Posted May 17, 2017 Share #21 Posted May 17, 2017 Advertisement (gone after registration) I have the large rocket blower and have yet to have it remove anything, but I keep trying. Sensor scope and lens pen probably should be first. I have the gel sticks, a Pentax one reserver for Leica which I have not used. Lens pen does fine. I have cleaned lots of Nikon sensors with Eclipse and no issues. I would worry worry less if I knew why sensors corrode. I think humid climate or liquids may be the problem, but I do not know. I do know the "no touch" solution is not practical. What do I tell the dealer when my name shows up for a M10 ? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

jaapv Posted May 18, 2017 Share #22 Posted May 18, 2017 Sensor corrosion has absolutely nothing to do with the M10 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
pop Posted May 18, 2017 Share #23 Posted May 18, 2017 Some of the causes for the sensor delamination of the M9 have been discussed here: https://www.l-camera-forum.com/topic/247062-ccd-sensor-new-leica-information-about-the-state-of-development/ However, none of this applies to the M10.

It has been addressed by the manufacturer over and above the warranty period. That's pretty fair goodwill. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

What do I tell the dealer when my name shows up for a M10 ? I have my first Rocket Blower for years until recently I gave it to my daughter. It was OK to blow on lens after wet cleaning. But didn't worked well with dust on sensor. I ordered new one and it made the difference. I guess, my first one was worn out after years of squeezing Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaapv Posted May 19, 2017 Share #26 Posted May 19, 2017 The main thing is that the rubber of the original rocketblower tends to disintegrate after a number of years, depositing rubber particles on the sensor. The Eyelead blower is made of a more stable material and has a dust filter. Welcome, dear visitor!
