Depends on the kind of photography you do. I'm mostly indoors and shooting at wide apertures; hence I change lenses freely, clean the sensor every year or two, and sometimes spend a few seconds doing dust spotting. If you were outdoors in a dusty environment shooting at small apertures (which makes the dirt much more visible) I could easily see coming to a different conclusion. -- David Dyer-Bennet, dd-b@xxxxxxxx; http://dd-b.net/ Snapshots: http://dd-b.net/dd-b/SnapshotAlbum/data/ Photos: http://dd-b.net/photography/gallery/ Dragaera: http://dragaera.info
