How to Remove Stubborn Sensor Spots?

( www.reddit.com )

How to Remove Stubborn Sensor Spots? How can I remove these senor spots? After multiple swabs, I still can’t completely remove the residual spots. I have to believe the spots are on the sensor glass as they improved after a few swabs. Perhaps the spots are some oil or other grime?

Are these stars or sensor noise?

Are these stars or sensor noise? I’ve taken this photo and edited it on LR to make these “stars” visible. I’m not sure if they’re actual stars or just the sensor grain made more visible or something. If either, what gives it away? ISO 100, 1/100, f/8, 105mm. submitted by /u/0oidy

Streaks on sensor wont go away?

( www.reddit.com )

Streaks on sensor wont go away? Streaks appeared after first time swabbing this sensor. They somehow “disappear” after using a new swab with sensor cleaning fluid then reappear days later. I don’t think they are scratches though as I am very careful with not reusing swabs and using a blower first. submitted by /u/Zexceed_9
