- Cleaning the 4000 ED?
- Posted by Harry F. Lockwood on August 8th, 2003
I seem to have accumulated a lot of dust inside my Nikon 4000 ED, and
recent scans suggest the optics may be dusty as well.
Has anyone here had the experience of cleaning the inside of the 4000
ED? Is there a step-by-step procedure posted any where?
Appreciate any advice.

Thanks, Kennedy, I've had a look at that site. I was amazed (and
somewhat frightened) at how many parts have to be removed to get at the
optics. I may proceed gingerly along that path.

Right you are. So, I decided to research the problem further. And
it's not the scanner!
I decided to look carefully at my chemicals. I had 2 bottles of
Photoflow concentrate, one very old, the other new. When I examined
the diluted fluid from the old bottle, I noticed that there were many
floating particles in the diluted solution. From the new bottle, none.
I just now developed a roll of film (TMY) using the newer bottle and
the scans are free of spots.
Moral of the story: watch your chemistry.
