PROCAM | Sensor Cleaning Service
Sensor Cleanings
Keep your images spotless with a professional sensor cleaning. Our technicians remove dust and debris safely and precisely so every shot stays clean and sharp.
Professional Camera Sensor Cleaning
If you’ve never had your camera sensor professionally cleaned, there’s a strong chance microscopic debris is affecting your image quality. Dust, dirt, moisture, and fine particles can settle on your sensor over time, often going unnoticed until spots appear in your photos—sometimes subtle, sometimes impossible to miss.
Digital Camera Sensor Cleaning — $50
PROCAM provides professional sensor cleaning for all DSLR and mirrorless cameras, including both APS-C and full-frame sensors. Most cleanings are completed within 1–2 business days. Please contact us for current turnaround times.
Our technicians use factory-approved cleaning methods and inspect sensors under high-magnification to safely and thoroughly remove debris. In nearly all cases, we’re able to perform a deeper and safer cleaning than what’s possible with at-home kits—helping protect your sensor and maintain optimal image quality.
Is It Sensor Dust?
If you shoot with an interchangeable-lens camera, sensor dust is inevitable. When spots appear, it’s important to confirm whether they’re coming from the sensor itself rather than the lens, mirror, or viewfinder.
How to Check for Sensor Dust
- Set your camera to manual focus and focus to infinity
- Set shutter speed to 1/100–1/125 sec
- Set the aperture to its smallest setting (typically f/22)
- Photograph a bright, evenly lit surface or clear sky
Visible dark spots in the image typically indicate dust on the sensor.
After taking these steps, if you have debris on your camera sensor, it should show up on the test photo. If you do see debris, it is time for a sensor cleaning. Some people clean their own sensors, and if not done right, can actually make the sensor dirtier - and if not careful, you can cause damage to the camera sensor like scratching, or cleaning fluid can leak into the cameras electronics.
*Note: If you are aware of any sensor scratches or damage and still would like the cleaning service please be sure to note of such damage when placing your order. Otherwise if upon receipt and inspection of your camera we find your sensor is scratched or damaged in some way, we will return your camera without performing the cleaning service.
