I can have my sensor professionally cleaned but that does me no good if I am on a mountaintop

What camera is it? My old Nikon has automatic sensor cleaner.

Batteries when it's -40'c.

No one chases you and runs you over with a half tone truck to steal your camera.

Police don't harass you with a wide angle zoom.

I can clean my own sensor with a swab and sensor cleaning solution from Amazon if I am on a mountaintop.


Yes yes… will need to shield it from the elements while cleaning it but it’s not impossible. And if it’s only dust, it’s even easier to clean with just a dust blower.
