This make people cringe, but I lock the mirror up and shoot the

It seems to work, and I haven't hurt anything yet.
I mentioned this on ForumsNeurotica and got soundly thrashed for
recommending a cleaning method that would surely wreck the camera,
so I challenged the good people there to come up with one single
instance where they could verify canned gas wrecking a camera.
The closest I got was a guy who met a guy coming out of a camera
store who had apparently done some damage to his camera while
cleaning it, but it wasn't really verifiable that the canned gas was
the culprit...
I didn't wreck a camera with canned air, but I did damage the mirror
in my K100 by cleaning it with canned air.
