ScuzzBlog: Diaries September 2017 Entry 16th September 2017: Post: 2 Dust to dust It really is a revelation sometimes when reviewing photographs taken with the camera at the amount of dust, hair and general grime there is on an object. Most of the time it is not visible to the naked eye. I have spent an age cleaning something and then when photographed still shows endless dust and fine particles. I removed another cheese from a 500 today and set too opening the thing up. This one had been welded tight with the clips fully sealed. Took me a while but I managed to get the 501 free from the shielding. The battery was in perfect condition as was the main board. I also pulled a Phoenix RAM board from a 500 and that too looked fine. Then I photographed both, with the flash and without and as ever the resultant images were quite revealing. A501 with silver shielding Clips totally welded and concealed You have to be a touch heavy handed Battery in perfect physical condition A501 looks clean No 'leakage' I shall leave the battery for now Much better without the shielding.. or you would think !! Enter the Pheonix RAM board Turn down the lights and take a deep breath [ Enigma ] Click on the picture to reveal the dust and grime And this has been behind a trap door cover Not bad but still has a surface residue Compare now with the 501 and see how dust free the board is The shielding has done its job Keeping the board in mint condition Totally dust free Shame the battery is there to be honest The A501 is the only board I have with the outer shielding. And as for the battery .. well dust to dust Eventually.. like all of them sadly.
