Having difficulties getting and keeping my K-7's sensor free of debris. Been working on this issue now for nearly two days and I am beginning to believe the problem is not
the older lenses breaking down, but something in the body. After extensive cleaning of the sensor, I will take a few shots which have no problems with dirt and dust showing up
on the sensor. However after four or five shots, I get what appear to be particles of soot along with dust. I get these results no matter how old or new my lenses are, or if they
are OEM or third party lenses. I tend to believe it is time for CLA (TLC) for the body. The camera has been a stellar performer for me and possesses only approximately 15 to
16,000 shutter actuations. Looking forward to any and all assistance.
Many thanks,
Tonytee
