Why does the sensor on the M-D 262 get dusty…📷

1. I use only the Summicron Rigid and never change the lens…!

It's not hermetically sealed especially if you sometimes take the lens off. In addition, materials inside the camera may (despite good efforts on behalf of the manufacturer) shed debris which starts to migrate through the camera over time.

I would guess that a lens as old as the Summicron Rigid can shed debris onto the sensor…!
