I tried the visible dust dry cleaner (external link)on my EOS 30D. but it leaved extra smear on my sensor. How can I clean my sensor??

Send in to canon...High pressure air about the only 2 options I know of.

Capture the moment that took your breath away. Savor each one and look for more to come!

DEFINITELY DO NOT USE COMPRESSED AIR!!!

You could send that in to Canon, or do it yourself. It's not hard once you get past all the hype. Do a few searches on sensor cleaning and copperhill.

Couple of DSLRs, number of lenses and other stuff... plenty short on talent.

It looks as though you had some contamination on the bristles of the brush, possibly oil. I would have said a clean sensor swab and Eclipse should get that off.

Oh, and clean the brush before you use it again,

I don't currently have this problem but asked a similar question in another thread today: http://www.photography​-on-the.net/forum/showthre​ad.php?t=303205

You may want to check out the Visible Dust link in that post.
