I've been shooting digital Canons (EOS-1Ds Mk I II III, EOS M, R, R5) from 2002-now and for the first time I have a dirty sensor.
Following the manual instructions on page 782 isn't making a dent in it.
All the dirt is in one corner so I fear I must have touched it :-(
So page 783 says in this case take it to a Canon Service Sensor.
Questions:
1) do you believe them? Is anyone cleaning the sensor manually?
2) how much is this going to cost me?
Here's the unphotoshopped version, and a version with contrast cranked way up.
