To Steve and the group,
Yes, dust is a never ending problem on film or digital - especially if that
digital sensor is charged! Just this week I supplied a link to this
excellent site with its cleaning tutorial:

I use the PEC/Eclipse technique described, but rely mostly on a dry brush
method from Visible Dust.

I know the sensor dirt issue is seemingly a never ending one, but I suppose
it is a never ending problem with a DSLR. I shot an outdoor church scene
today with lots of sky, and I am seeing LOTS of black spots in the sky
area... some of them quite large. Is that sensor dirt? I have never
attempted cleaning mine after about 2 years of use! I have always tried to
keep lens changing to a minimum, and take the other precautions such as
holding the camera down and being sure it is turned off before changing
lenses. It appears though that now I will be forced to clean the sensor.
I'm thinking some light blowing will not get it by the looks of the spots
in my photo, it will probably need wiping with a solution.
I would really appreciate anyone telling again what their favorite product
is to use for this job. I really don't want to have to send the camera off
to Canon for what seems to be such a simple... yet delicate I know...
procedure.
