Camera troubles...

[Kirsten Reilly]

So recently my photos have come out with specks of dust? I think, I have cleaned the lenses and camera, however it still appears on all my photos, which has kind of rendered my camera useless. This is an example of the problem any ideas what I can do? sorry the picture isn't great...

You need to get your sensor cleaned as that is where the dust is.

You can do it yourself. Plenty of videos on YouTube for advice.
Done mine the other day for the first time

I have a Lenspen SensorKlear for cleaning the sensor and it works a treat, bit of a nervous moment the first time you do it, but take your time and be careful and it'll clean the dust bunnies

I would try a blast or 2 with a Rocket Blower first then check for bunnies (small aperture, long exposure of a blank wall). If there are still some visible, a LensPen Sensor Klear should shift them. Make sure you use the camera's sensor cleaning mirror lock up mode and have a full battery.
