If it's still under warranty, u can send it back to canon. Other than Harbour front, u can send it to Funan Canon shop too. But you have to wait for 2 to 3 days for them to get the job done coz they don't have technician there to do it.

I normally use a 1200W household vacuum cleaner to suck out the dust.

It is good to learn how to clean CMOS sensor yourself.

Denosha has posted a good link for DIY
