Interesting thread although some of the anatomy has left me lost.
I'm currently reading David D. Busch's Dummies book and in it he recommneds cleaning sensors using a blower, cleaning swab and cleaning liquid. I was under the impression that sensors were so delicate that they shouldn't be touched just blown on using a hand blower to remove dust. I always seem to be having dust problems and haven't found the blower technique very effective so the use of cleaning swabs sounds very interesting. Using a vacuum also sounds useful. Any thoughts/recommnedations on the subject?
If I ordered swabs, are there brands that are recommneded? My camera is a 20D.
