Get in TouchWe recognize the obvious importance
Caring for your camera is an integral part of getting great shots. While today’s cameras are very resilient and durable, dust, dirt and other contaminants can still ruin great photos.
At Downtown Camera, we know that cleaning a camera can be an intimidating task, as well as time consuming. For that reason, we offer our valued customers camera care solutions they need to ensure their photography experience will never be defaced with a rogue piece of dirt.
Your sensor is the eye of your camera, so having dirt in there is only going to cause you trouble. Dirt and dust on the sensor will lead to random blobs and spots on photos, ruining even the best shots. We offer in-house sensor cleaning for all brands of digital cameras, including cleaning the sensor face itself, and cleaning the inside of the camera as well. We use only the best tools to bring your sensor back to like-new image quality. We have a quick turnaround as well, ensuring that dirt and dust won’t ruin your pictures, or cost you a day of shooting. Please have a fully charged battery on the day of the cleaning.
Digital camera technology is always advancing, and as such there are often updates that come available for your camera that make minor or even major improvements to its function. Getting these upgrades to the camera’s firmware (its brain, if you will) can be a bit scary, as an improperly applied firmware patch can ruin a camera instantly. Downtown Camera offers firmware upgrades for all brands of cameras, so you can get the full benefit from your camera and avoid a mistake that results in a costly paperweight. While firmware updates aren’t necessarily critical, they can often result in great improvements in areas like focusing, image quality, and more. Come see us to guarantee your camera is at its best.
