[QUOTE="NVSteve, post: 134763, member: 13248"] Dust issue? I WISH I only had to deal with dust. Body #2 went into the light today for the first time since getting it. I only have about 1600 shots on it & I have not cleaned it since day one. Lots of spots, although I only checked at f16. My previous body had a massive amount of spots clearly visible even at f5.6. As to blowing out the dust, which I do not have, this is what I use: [IMG]http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8545/8629116879_613643b298_o.jpg[/IMG] At first, even the gigantic sized rocket blowers would do nothing, so I've had to invest a substantial amount in cleaning products. This is after trying to blow everything out: [IMG]http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8384/8630057136_e22814ffbc_o.jpg[/IMG] 4 wet swabs later: [IMG]http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8265/8628947615_6572b4b367_o.jpg[/IMG] I'll start keeping an eye on it from now on. My previous body would have a ton of spots after 10 shots, so I really hope this one won't be as bad. Looks like I'll be bringing along all my cleaning gear for the next couple of vacations.
