How do I remove a spec of dust inside my nikon lens?
I have a nikon 18-200mm lens and i cleaned it all off, but if you look deep into it , looks l ike theres a spec of white dust or something, not on the lens but deeper down, any suggestions of how this happened or how i can fix it?
Hi Cincy,
Sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but you cannot do anything about particles inside of the lens. It is actualy inbetween the glass elements. (Meaning you can do nothing, yourself)
You could take the lens in to a camera repair, but it is a very expensive ordeal because the repair tech would have to break the seals of the lens and go inside and remove element by element until he gets to the particle. I can almost tell you now, that any repair tech is going to advise against it.
He will also tell you that it is not going to affect the quality of your images at all.
I would suggest you take the camera in to a camera repair and get the tech to give you an estimate and just to make sure you are only dealing with a tiny particle of dust, I would ask him if the particle is the beginning of a fungus problem, because that would be a BIG issue and you would really want to get it taken care of asap. (Probably not... but only the experts can give you that answer.)

It's interesting to watch the arrival of a new camera in either the Canon or the Nikon line of DSLR's. There is always so much anticipation. It's kind of like waiting for the announcement of Best Picture at the Academy Awards. Every interested person knows why "their" favorite should win the prize.
In the case of Canon and Nikon, the rivalry has been ongoing. And since the advent of the sub-$1000 DSLR, it has been even more intense. Which camera manufacturer can dominate the market with their newest release. The original Canon Rebel 300D and the Nikon D40 were both wildly popular (and the D40 continues to sell well).
The great part about purchasing a new DSLR for the very first time is that you can't go wrong by choosing a Canon or Nikon. The reasons for making the jump from a digital compact point and shoot to a DSLR can be one of several. Usually there is a progression in a photographer's experience that moves from casual photography to more complex and the need to have more control over the camera's output than is available in the P&S models. Actually, some digital compacts offer some extra control, such as the Canon G10, but the photographer still does not have the ability to switch lenses.
This progression usually happens from a Digital Compact to an Entry Level DSLR to a Professional Level DSLR. Each of these cameras offer more control than the previous and of course, the price tag increase as well.
How does the Nikon D3000 compare to the Canon XSi? Here are some features of each:
                                    Nikon D3000   vs  Canon XSi
- Sensor Size:           10.2Megapixels  vs   12Megapixels
- ISO:                         100-1600           vs      100-1600
- LCD:                         3.0"                 vs       3.0"
- Continuous Shots       3.0fps             vs       3.5fps
- Video                            no                 vs         no
- Kit Lens                   18-55mm VR     vs     18-55mm IS
This is just a capsule comparison. But you can see that, aside from the 2MP difference in Sensor Size, there is virtually no difference in the specs of these two cameras. It will be quite interesting to see how the new Nikon matches up to its older siblings.
