I have never cleaned my sensor myself. I've had a "bogey" (blurry spot?) in some of my images for a little while, so last week I left it at a camera shop for a pro cleaning. They call back to say it's clean, but I have a permanent scratch on the sensor. Is this fixable? is it worth it? I have a waterproof point and shoot to get me by, and I can continue to photoshop spots until I have money to either fix or replace my slr.
Answer
Check back with the shop, if they did in fact cause the scratch they are responsible for fixing it, except in some very unusual circumstances. Those would be should you not be able to prove they caused it (by images before and after), or if they have some sort of limit imposed in the service contract that has lapsed. In the future, I'd recommend only using a Nikon Authorized Service Center for this type of work. Many camera shops are GREAT, but haven't necessarially caught up with the digital revolution.
Should they be unwilling to repair it, if they are a Nikon Dealer or Service Center, contact Nikon directly to resolve the issue - they will generally mediate if they are under an agreement with the shop - since they don't want their name dirtied by poor service.
Otherwise, I'd price the repair with Nikon if it turns out you have no recourse with the shop. Since only the glass filter and not the filter itself is likely damaged, it should be "reasonably" cheap. Find out a price, and then make your decision. The D70 is a great camera, but it'd be a judgement call on if you'd rather spend $100-200 for a repair or drop $900 on a new D90, which is probably the closest current model in features and performance.

How can I fix photos that didnât develop properly?

I recently went on a family trip to an indoor water park. I did not want to get my digital camera ruined so I brought one of those disposable waterproof cameras. We took priceless shots of my three kids having a blast. Unfortunately when we had the film developed from Walgreenâs none of the pictures took. There was no flash on the camera so I am assuming that is why. You can barely make out the images in some of the photos. They are either extremely grainy or so dark you canât see anything. I want these photoâs sooooooo bad. Is there any software that I can buy that can fix them? I brought the Walgreenâs photo disk so I have all the images on my computer.
Answer
there is unfortunately not a lot you can do once the film is developed... there simply isn't enough light there to make an image from..
you can try using photo shop to lighten the image but that is not likely to work well.. in the future... if you know you took film pictures with no flash use a custom developer not wall mart and ask them to push the film.
