Now, this is their newest design
these are dry swabs and they're made to be used in conjunction with the Altura Photo®
All-Natural Sensor Cleaner. So, these are all hermetically sealed
in here and again they are for APS-C camera sensors which is 23mm x 15.60mm
so it's a 16mm size that's the one that you need. These guys
are made of ultra soft microfiber, it's lint free and of course is going to
absorb the oil and condensation. It's going to make sure that all the particles
disappear and of course they're one-time use only
so when you open these guys up, that's why they come individually sealed. You're
going to only use this once. So now I'm going to show you how to clean a sensor.
Alright here I have the very popular Nikon D3200, again, the way to clean
this is going to be very similar in most Nikon's but it's going to differ from
manufacturer to manufacturer and remember this is going to work with all
your crop sensor Nikons like the D3200 D3000 the 5500 series, even the new D500
and of course in Canon T3S, all the Rebels T6S T6I 60D 70D 7D Mark II
80D. Remember as long as you have an APS-C sized sensor it's going to work
perfectly for it, even for the mirrorless like the Sony A6300 and A6000.
Now, first thing we need to do is on this camera we need to go into the menu
so I'm going to access my menu. I'm going to go to lock the mirror up for cleaning
that's the one that's going to give me the capability of accessing the sensor
so I'm going to hit OK, hit OK to start and then click the shutter, remove the lens
and notice that this guy is open so that I can access the sensor there in the
back which is pretty filthy, again you want to make sure that there are no dust
particles in here so you want to use a hurricane blower and notice how I'm holding
the camera at an angle so any dust particles that are in there going to fall out
alright, so once we do that now immediately open up one of the sealed Altura Photo®
APS-C sensor swabs, pull this guy out and then we're going to spray it with the
Altura Photo® spray this is the sensor cleaning spray that comes in the kit
it's also available to purchase separately and all you need is one spray
you don't need to douse this tremendously so, like that, that's it
so now hold the camera straight across like so, one swipe.
Now, you go ahead and use
another swab, this one is completely dry cause you don't want to reuse these
guys that way you don't run the risk of getting more dirt onto your sensor and
again in the same direction.
Just swipe it across, that gets any excess moisture that might be on the
sensor off there. Immediately put your legs back on and again what you want to really
do is take a shot of a white surface completely out of focus and
compare that to a previous shot that you might have had that show dust particles
that were you guarantee that you got rid of all the excess dust particles on your
sensor. So, again, you need to clean your sensor go ahead and pick up the Altura Photo®
professional APS-C DSLR Sensor Cleaning Swabs this will make your life
a lot simpler than having to sit and trying to fix all this in Photoshop plus
again anything that stays on your sensor for a long period of time eventually
fuses on and becomes a bigger problem so keep it clean and that way you can do
some beautiful happy imaging.
Happy shooting!
