Decided to clean the sensors in my DSLRs yesterday.
Took a test shot first then blew them out with the Rocket and finally used my 'Arctic Butterfly 724' brush.

Anyway thought I'd post the before and after shot.

So how'z about showing us your worst sensor dust shot. :rolleyes:

(for the sake of server space, please keep the files small, just enough to show us your dirty bits). :p

So, I'm looking at your first picture, and I wonder (cuz I rarely check first) "Who started this thread?"..............
...........
......That makes it even better - that your name on here is DUSTY.
(sorry, I don't have any dusty pix)

Ok, not technically dust, but still annoying (black shots).

These are all 100% crops.

short of sending my 20D back to Canon to be cleaned what can I do to remove the dust? I've tried the air thing so much my hand hurts from squeezing the bulb ...

If it's stubborn dust you need to go to the next step like I did.
I used an "arctic butterfly brush cleaner":

or try some other brands of wet/dry brush products.
