[QUOTE="pforsell, post: 525172, member: 7240"] Okay. I wasn't trying to be argumentative, I was trying to be helpful. But I take your word for the lens dust, no problem. The reason why I posted that your dust has to be really unique kind since never in the 30+ years and 50+ lenses I own have I witnessed such a thing, nor have I ever heard of such a thing. I was trying to open the door to a possibility of another source, but since you already have eliminated other possibilities, I was a nuisance. Sorry. But as I said the most cost effective way might be to replace the offending lens. Maybe with something of higher quality build as to decrease the risk of more dust in the future. The plastic zooms are the worst there are, but something like a lightly used AF-S 28-70/2.8 ED has better sealing, almost non-extending barrel when zooming (less suction), internal focusing (even less suction) and full metal build. Sorry to have bothered you. Best of luck. [/QUOTE]
