Why didn't I clean my own sensor? Because I was worried I would screw it up so I brought it to the my local camera specialist. When I brough it in there it worked great, sub some dust particles. When they took their test shot for cleaning it worked great... so they say, but before cleaning he went to take another test shot and "had a shutter error". The camera doesn't function now and must be sent to Nikon for warranty work.
You know how you get that feeling when you walk in somewhere and the wispering starts..... and the dreaded "did you get my message this morning, there is a bit of a problem?" After getting back up from the floor and dusting yourself off the conversation begins.
They claim they haven' even started cleaning it yet and that it looks immaculate (thank you.. thank you...) and that it worked perfectly for them on a test shot. Somewhere after that its SCREWED. They figure Nikon will have it for 2-4 weeks and there shouldn't be any charges because nothing has been "tampered" with... it just seems to have a shutter error and won't work.
ARGH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Quick question though... if they have to take it apart to deal with the shutter, will they clean my sensor as a courtesy? Anyone????
The venting process has just ended.
