Ruud~ Member	# Posted: 11 May 10 18:16 Reply Really, that's a nerve wrecking procedure, if you consider how wrong it could go! I bought a sensor cleaning subscription with my camera (for €60, it's valid as long as the camera lives), but I don't want to bring it in every time I notice a speck of dust. So, after half a year or so and the second cleaning, I bought myself a Giottos Rocket-Air cleaner that proves very effective. I occasionally use it to prevent dust building up in the mirror house or to remove a speck on the sensor. The best thing about it is that haven't needed any other cleaning since I bought it. Here is a Rocket-Air review. I have the middle-sized one (costs about €10).
