Sensor Cleaning

The camera has a Self Cleaning Sensor Unit to

automatically shake off dust adhered to the image

sensor’s front layer (low pass filter).

The Dust Delete Data can also be appended to the

image so that the dust spots remaining can be deleted

automatically by Digital Photo Professional (EOS

software, p.552).

Smudges adhering to the front of the sensor

Besides dust entering the camera from outside, in rare cases,
lubricant from the camera’s internal parts may adhere to the front of
the sensor. If visible spots still remain after the automatic sensor
cleaning, having the sensor cleaned by a Canon Service Center is
recommended.
