FREE Camera Sensor Cleaning for FCCP Supporters — Join FCCP Now and Save $$$

The Director and Assistant Organizers invite all FCCP Supporters and Members to signup for a FREE camera sensor cleaning.

Every time we remove the lens from our cameras dust and other airborne debris enters the mirror chamber/shutter box and some of the material affixes itself to the surface of the sensor. The dust blocks light from reaching some of the pixels and creates grey “orbs” in our photos (see sample below).

Some cameras have various internal methods of cleaning the dust off the sensor. However, the dust is still in the shutter box and reattaches to the sensor the next time a photo is taken. Camera stores and camera repair shops routinely charge $50 to $100 for a single cleaning.

FCCP will be offering FREE sensor cleanings to FCCP Supporters. Supporters are those members that have paid their annual dues for 2021. If you are not yet a FCCP Supporter and would like to pay your dues and get your sensor cleaned, please visit a link below.

If you just want to get your sensor cleaned (and not become a FCCP Supporter) we’ll be offering sensor cleanings for just $40. The $40 can be paid at the door in cash, exact change please.

Please sign up for the time slot you’d like to have your sensor cleaned. We are booking cleanings in ½ hour intervals starting at 8 AM and continuing until 11 AM. We are limiting signup to just 5 members per 30 minute period. The cleaning takes just a few minutes and is done on a first come, first served basis for the ½ hour period. One RSVP is required for each camera. No more than 1 RSVP per ½ hour.

Cameras must be submitted for a cleaning with the following accessories:

1. Lens
2. Fully charged battery
3. Empty storage card (Compact Flash, SD or other)

Remove

1. All straps
2. Lens Hoods

While you wait for your camera you can enjoy beverages at O’Keefe’s. They offer coffee, tea, juices and soft drinks. Lunch is available starting at 11 AM.

My Recommended Retailers

Where you buy your gear matters. You expect to get what you ordered and you want to pay a low price for it. The retailers I recommend below are the ones I trust for my own purchases.

Bringing you the activities and this site is now a full time job (typically 60-80 hours per week). Thus, I depend on membership fees and on the commissions received from you using the links on this site to make any purchases. My family and I are grateful for your support! - Jeff
