[QUOTE="Vixen, post: 627908, member: 21839"] Thankyou Stan. That is a very good explanation of why and what and very useful. I DO use my camera on the beach a LOT and while I try to be very careful there are often stray grains of sand in my lens mounts etc so totally possible one has gotten inside. I DO blow the processor pretty well before I use a swab and i DO use a clean swab every time and I DO blow that swab to remove any loose fibres etc before using it...so I think I am doing things rightly. I have found salt spray can be quite hard to remove from my lenses, so if any has managed to get into the camera onto the processor I imagine it would be just as hard to remove ( I've found water to be the best thing for it on lenses). I figure I just try it again when my new solution arrives, and maybe I will try to source some methanol for future use also. If that black streak remains tho I have no idea. Maybe time for a new camera. It's a good excuse anyway :D [/QUOTE]
