Need to have my camera sensor cleaned anyone local?

As title.

Going on holiday at the end of next week and my camera sensor is covered in dust. Is there anyone local to Bournemouth or Southampton that could do this for me?

Thanks

Its very easy to do yourself, I usually do mine every so often.

Get yourself some sensor swabs (the right size) and cleaning fluid. Its just a case of wetting the swab and gently running it over the sensor.

This is what I use:

Also might be worth thinking about something like a Rocket blower to remove dust particles.

At a push I can do this for you, in Southampton. I think I've got a swab and some alcohol left. Absolutely no guarantees as to the quality of the job though.

Thanks for the replies. Not got the time to do it myself, left it a little late! Took it to LCE in Southampton.

You need a kit then - even then the mark up is silly, but it should cost you no more than £5 per clean in materials.

Yeah, I'm sure. Lack of time before my holiday unfortunately! Will do next time.
