Cats hair in my camera body!!

[Daston]

Hey guys,

Think one of my cat's hairs is in my camera body, I have had a good look and cant seem to find it. I have tried different lenses as well and its still there so definitely the body.

It's a Nikon D5100 and this how my pics are coming out.



Any ideas?

Do you have a vac with a hose ? Try that ! Worked for me with no ill effects ...

Ah like your thinking!!

I take it you've tried the sensor cleaning mode?!

Yeah tried that to start with but made no difference.

I assume it's got a manual sensor cleaning mode, in which case an air blower should get rid of that easily - probably the easiest method!

Rocket blower should sort that.

Did you try the Vac ? I find that when I use my Rocket Blower I end up with more crap than when I started !!

I got some swabs off t'bay for my d3200. worked a treat.

looks big, take the lens off put it in cleaning mode and grab the hair with tweezers carefully , of you cant use a blower not compressed air.

If everything fails, become a cat portrait photographer! Nobody will notice!
