Is it fair to expect that a full frame sensor attracts more dust on the sensor than the 1.6 crops?
I'd interested to see the views of posters that own both styles of cameras.
Cheers

That said, since the sensor is a fair bit larger, it often seems to attract dust like some form of evil dust magnet... but that's a perception issue more than anything else IMHO. -- Michael (a.k.a.
