Would too much sensor cleaning (wiping) impact the sharpness, dynamic range, and color depth?

@mattdm: I'm not asking if it is risky, but I'm asking about potential impacts. – Transcendent Nov 08 '17 at 17:34

1Isn't that implied in "risk"? – mattdm Nov 08 '17 at 17:45

@mattdm: Not a risk, because I mean would the cleaning liquid bleach some very very thin layer of the sensor (or the filter on top it) and more importantly would that lead to reduction of quality in terms of sharpness, dynamic range and color depth. In the other post, I didn't find these aspects. – Transcendent Nov 08 '17 at 18:31

1I don't see how that isn't a risk.... – mattdm Nov 08 '17 at 20:24

@mattdm: ok but the other question does not discusse the risk from this perspective. – Transcendent Nov 08 '17 at 20:34

It seems to. It says "so I would like to know the risk of problems, such as further image deterioration or damage to the sensor or low-pass filter" — isn't that literally, exactly what you are asking? – mattdm Nov 08 '17 at 20:36

@mattdm: You are right, but within the responses I couldn't find anything related to what I asked. – Transcendent Nov 08 '17 at 21:15

"Too much" sensor cleaning using proper methods and techniques would not. Using incorrect methods and techniques, even one time, certainly could. – Michael C Nov 09 '17 at 20:35

If done properly and with care, you shouldn't have any problems, but I wouldn't advise you to do it every day, because you could potentially damage it by accident.
If you're worried, pay a company to do it for you. Judging by your history, it seems this bothers you for over a year now..
