For those of you out there who arn't experts. Please keep up with cleaning your camera and don't treat it as if you are cleaning the kitchen sink. I was a little lax with the way I cleaned my Cannon 30D and it cost me around $300 dollars to replace my sensor....:eek::eek::eek:

Don't feel bad. I happen to know that it costs $370 to have the rear housing replaced on a 50D. I also know that a 50D will continue to work perfectly if dropped 5ft. onto concrete but it will crack the case. The camera landed on the back corner of the body with the 24-105L pointing up.

Steel wool or ScotchBrite is never good for sensor cleaning! :eek:

Another don't - do not put your G9 inside the external pocket of your photopack and then do a boarding checkin because the bag will not fit in the overhead compartment of the commuter jet.

 

Cost me $160 to have my LCD screen replaced.
