I have two of these and i think that they are a brilliant camera for the price, producing good results. What i do have is a dust moate/ crud problem with both. Every single time i go to use these cameras i have to clean the sensor, even after i leave it on the scope overnight ready for use the next day for solar work. its driving me nuts. i am thinking that its the cruddy black foamy stuff surrounding the sensor (in front). do thay need to have the black foam there? can it be removed? should it be removed?
