How to avoid dust on the DSLR sensor?

Even with very careful care always get dust particles on the surface-sensitive sensor of a digital camera.

Without an immediate cleaning, they could find themselves in the form of small black dots on the recording. Modern cleaning systems that put the dust, for example, using sound waves to have body, minimizing the waste volume, but certainly not eliminated altogether. Resourceful photographers rely therefore of the good old manual labor and some preventive measures to avoid dust on the sensor surface:

1. Contamination by dust is particularly frequent during lens exchange. Therefore, the first rule is very simple: Eat a minimum of dust-free environment.

2. It should blow no wind (for example, through an open window) and the entire procedure to be executed to get it done. If an objective change in a windy environment is unavoidable, turn his back against the wind direction and build a kind of protective shield around your camera.

3. The lens cap is a classic dust carrier. It can also accumulate on the actual lens surface a lot of dust, especially if the good piece almost only fit a few weeks on the shelf.

Therefore: Before applying both objective as well Blow off the lens cap carefully and / or wipe off with a clean brush. For the latter you should use a special anti-static brushes. This results from a possibly existing, static electricity, which otherwise acts as a dust magnet. That way, you should do, if you can see with the naked eye, no dust particles: Seemingly invisible micro dust can contaminate the sensor surface in the long run also.

4. From the camera body up to the lens cap should cover all non-essential parts in a dust-free environment, such as a special case to be removed.
