I've been using my Canon D30 for about 2 years but somehow I can't really find any huge or very noticeable dust or dirt spots on the images I took, despite enlarging my image to more than 300% in Photoshop and inspecting closely.
So far I've only used a blower to blow any possible dust on the sensor, as recommended by the camera manual and did not touch it with anything else.
So should i then buy one of those cleaners and clean the sensor anyway? For eg, there's a good tip by CS member, sfhuang. Do you all clean the sensor on a regular basis whether or not there is dust?
Somehow I get different views about cleaning the sensor. Some still swear to only use blower and nothing else. Worse case is to send it to Canon centre. Yet I've heard the best way is to make contact with the sensor using swab. But.. is this safe? Will it scratch the sensor?
Thanks...
