[QUOTE="Marcel, post: 315283, member: 3903"] Hi Kaye, I'm almost certain that if you'd take shots with your D90 at f22 you'd get some too. I admit that the more pixels you got on the sensor, the more dust it can attract. I think it's a question of static electricity (but I've been proven wrong before so it's just my opinion). I had the D90 and then got the D7000 and I did notice the same thing. BUT, there is no reason to shoot at f-22 since we know that diffraction at higher f stops than 11 can lower the IQ of images taken with high density pixel DSLRs. Dust has always been an annoyance for photographers. I remember my darkroom days or nights were getting rid of dust was a major battle that wasn't always won. It's the same thing with digital. If you want to sleep well at night and forget about it,learn how to clean your sensor, learn to stop testing for dust at f-22, and, just use some post processing to get rid of the inevitable dust particle that will eventually appear in a shot or two. When it gets to invasive, then you clean your sensor. High pixel density has it's price and I think dust is just a part of it. Enjoy your Nikon. [/QUOTE]
