Phase One iXG Camera  

 

   Sensor Cleaning Procedure  

 
 

 

Dismounting a Lens from the iXG Camera 

Lenses on the iXG series of cameras are easily dismounted. 

NOTE

: Ensure that you only dismount lenses in a clean environment. Place the detached lens 

on a soft cloth on the table to avoid scratching the lens. 

To dismount the lens: 

 

Release the lens' locking levers. 

 

Remove the lens by pulling it gently away from the camera. 

 

NOTE

: If no lens is being mounted, ensure that the camera is stored in a way that protects it 

from dust, moisture and other damage. When the iXG camera is mounted facing down, always 
make sure (double check) that the lens is well secured by having the lens locking levers 
engaged. 

 

Cover the front of the camera to prevent damage to the sensor.  

 

With a 2.5mm hex screwdriver, release the four camera module screws and lift 
the entire camera body, place it on a clean surface. 

Note

: Make sure that the sensor module is well protected.
