How to clean your Panasonic Lumix DMC-TZ6 sensor.

How to clear those blobs off your pictures, caused by dust and dirt entering camera body and attaching themselves to inner class parts. The sensor itself is protected so cannot, or is very unlikely to, get dirty. These simple instructions show how to clean the protective glass covering the sensor and internal lens. Don't be scared, these cameras are well built. Just be careful removing back plate as there are cables attached. The results are well worth it... pictures are clear like new.

That sounds strange. Apart from cleaning the actual front glass lens, which you've probably already done, I'm not sure. You may need to actually, and VERY carefully, wipe the glass inside the camera that covers the sensor as opposed to just using a blower. Good luck and hope you find a fix soon.

I'm having trouble with two spots that only are visible during video mode. I tried your video, but the spots are still there?? Do you have any suggestions. I have DMC-ZS6.

Thanks! I've been putting off sending my DMC-ZS5 into the shop for an $80 cleaning. Your instructions worked perfectly, except my model had an extra metal sheet between the sensor unit and the camera body, but it was no problem removing it. The dust is gone! Thanks again!!
