Dirty Sensor - Glasgow help?
How bad is it? Can't you get by for now with just cloning out the spots? Which camera do you have? Does it have a sensor cleaner which may shake off the dust? Isn't Gartmore in Glasgow? you could maybe PM him?

I paid €50 last time, but it was filthy and it was a 24-hr turnaround. Bret

I know. It was the first time I'd had it done professionally and was disappointed to see them using a blower, just like I would have done...... so I'll be cleaning myself next time. Bret

I know this is Birmingham - but I suspect that Calumet in Glasgow would do this too

I have no problem with cloning, it is just a strange feeling to know that these three spots are there :) And don't fancy cloning every single photo.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b8KI75FlBYs Problem with a blower though is that you move the dust away from the sensor but that it remains in the housing. Also with blowing it always goes where you don't want it... the viewfinder :( The Arctic Butterfly works well and Pentax has some sort of sti...

Dirty Sensor - Glasgow help?
Ok, maybe stupidly but I was so annoyed by the price of the professional cleaning comparing to the price of my camera that I took cotton buds, locked the mirror and looked inside the camera. I could clearly see all three particles (two white one black :)). I touched each of them and they stacked to ...

Problem with a blower though is that you move the dust away from the sensor but that it remains in the housing.

Dirty Sensor - Glasgow help?
Anyway I find dust doesn't land on the focusing screen when I place the blower nozzle near the screen. I might be doing something wrong then, I saw the dust in the viewfinder getting worse every time I use the blower after a good 6 to 8 months at the beginning all was good. :( When I started using ...

I made a mistake in my above post, sorry. I meant place the nozzle near the sensor, not near the screen. Then there should be a minimal risk of dust getting on the focusing screen.
