We had a similar problem with the CCD camera on our CM12, a Princeton Micromax
from Gatan. The IGP would increase by ~10 when the camera was removed, but
nearly instantly recover when the camera was inserted. We had to take apart
the camera then clean and regrease an internal o-ring on the inserting
piece. This fixed the problem.
Hope this helps.
