Hmm, I’ll have to give that a look. I have dust on the sensor of my primary body and will have to deal with it sooner than later. I am currently adjusting my shooting to work around the dust and it hasn’t been a big problem, but I would still prefer a squeaky clean sensor.

Here are my thoughts on some of the other options available to people suffering from dust problems: http://blogs.adamparkerphotography.com/blog/Ive-got-sensor-dust-what-should-I-do/13/

Thanks again for the post and I’ll have to give Dust-Aid a look.

Hey, that’s just awesome. I love reflective shots like this one. Just beautiful colors, too.

Hi Paul,

Yeah the self cleaning sensor is a big plus. This was the first time cleaning my sensor, and I have had the camera for 9 months now. Thanks.

Hi Richard,

I can’t ever see the dust on the sensor either, it must be really small specs showing up. I’m sure it is on the sensor because I can move them and remove them eventually. Lens dust doesn’t seem to show up. Thanks.

Good to know Ron. The weird thing is that when I look at my sensor I cannot see anything on there but it shows up on the computer. I wonder if its possible to get dust inside of the lens.

Hadn’t thought of the double GND’s either. nice.

Thanks for this link. I just got back from a trip and will need to clean some images that have obvious dust in them. I haven’t found this to be as much an issues with the self-cleaning sensors, but my Canon 5D is still a bit of a pain. I’ve not considered using two ND-grads this way either. Great image an info.
