Re: *istD CCD cleaning

That may be the safest... I used the "Bessler?" brand which says safe for 
cameras all over it, with the exception of mirrors.  I assume the only 
reason it's not considered safe for mirrors is that if a chemical is 
deposited on the mirror it's much harder to clean than film.

Also, I would not use compressed air if the can is close to empty, so it 
doesn't spit.  Other than that, I can say I've been using compressed air for 
years and haven't had a problem.

By the way, I would avoid using canned compressed air under any 
circumstances. I've ruined several negatives with that stuff. I wouldn't 
let it get anywhere near the CCD.
