Do you guys have it set to clean every time you turn it on and off or is that overkill?

The only possible reason I could imagine for turning the auto sensor clean function off is to conserve battery. But with the high number of images I get out of one lithium battery, that is a moot point for me. Canon 5D Mark II & 50D with 17-40, 24-105, 100-400, 50 f/1.4, 100 f/2.8 macro, and 1.4TC

Jun 04, 2010 11:54 | #10 I just thought that leaving it on all the time would wear something out or something. Thanks for the help, I'm leaving it on. 7D/BG-E7 - 580EXII - EF-S 17-55mm f/2.8 IS USM - EF-S 60mm f/2.8 Macro USM - EF-S 10-22mm f/3.5-4.5 USM - in a Domke F-2RW
