[QUOTE="nickt, post: 199627, member: 4923"] Years ago, I ruined a SLR focus screen just trying to lightly brush some dust off with a cotton swab, zero pressure. Cotton will definitely will scratch plastic. It will also scratch the shiny film of a front surface mirror. I am hoping cotton would not scratch the glass? filter in front of the sensor. Maybe the OP just has a smear that the relatively course cotton couldn't fully remove. I'm having macro mania lately, so I had to take this pic, lol. Maybe it will discourage anyone from using cotton swabs anywhere near their camera: [ATTACH type="full" width="30%"]53033._xfImport[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
