I have had several mirrorless bodies, Sony A6000, Fuji XPro3, Fuji X-E4, but my Sony A7iii is the only one on which I seem to have sensor dust every single time I swap lenses…

Brand by brand how impacted are you by this issue ? Do you think that there are specific models which exhibit this issue more than others ?

    I have an a7iii as well and this thing collects dust like crazy

    I take so many photos, hit f11 and shoot the sky and find myself hurt by the amount of dang spots I see

    I clean it almost every 3 month.

    Wtf is going on with this camera?

      I would like to know too … it really pisses me off to be on location and have to try to blow dust out of it in between lens swaps

    I shot Olympus and Pansonic M43 for several years before going Sony FF. I cleaned a spec of dust one time ever on my G9 with a blower. I take my cameras hiking as I do landscapes so I’m constantly in rough conditions.

    My Sony FF gets so dirty sometimes even the cleaning function and blower doesn’t do it and I resort to sensor wipes. The sensors literally act like dust magnets for me. It doesn’t matter whether the lens I’m using is weather sealed…even without swapping lenses after a few weeks of use I have dust showing up in my photos. It only takes on lens swap and I’ll be cleaning numerous dust specs from the sensor in post. Been through two A7R2s that both do this.
