Hi,
I just got a 2nd hand 1ds2. Saw some dust on the photo. Did some research and got myself a Rocket blower. It helps to get most of the dust off but still one bit hanging around. Any ways of getting rid of that myself with the minimum $?

Thank you for your input.

Only way to get the sensor clean is to do a wet sensor cleaning. If you haven't done this before I suggest you find a friend that knows how and show you how to do it right. If not, take it to your local Canon service center and have them clean it for you. It shouldn't cost more then $40.00.

Take Care,
Cheers, Patrick

or you could be brave and buy a cleaning kit and practice on an old camera first... or at least a a filter wth coating (you can see the effect of doing it correctly and incorrectly) before you clean your own camera. Its pretty simply. But the fact is quality cleaning kit will likely cost you more than $40.
