[QUOTE="Peter7100, post: 753720, member: 48633"] If you start to see spots in your pictures then it probably means there is dust or something on the sensor. One way to check is to take a photo of a white wall. Some people choose to have their sensors professionally cleaned as they fear doing any damage. However it can be done without any experience but you must follow the instructions very carefully. There are a few different methods and the safest is probably with a blower brush although this can just move the dirt/dust to another location on or near the sensor. After that you are looking at using swabs over the actual sensor itself. All sensor cleaning involves locking the mirror up and your battery must have a good charge when doing so. I rarely do it, maybe once ever couple of years but dirt on the sensors can vary depending on what environment you are in, particularly when changing lenses. [/QUOTE]
