I had dust on my kx sensor before xmas. I researched a lot, but before investing I bought a rocket blower from amazon for £7.99.... It worked brilliantly. Just remember to hold camera up so that mirror and sensor is facing floor so as u blow the air the dust falls out rather than getting stuck!

My plan was to get a descent portrait lens, but I do take a lot of macro shots. I own the Tamron 70-300, which I think is very good but I get an awful lot of CA in contrasting colours.

Thanks for the feedback. Awesome pics! For the insect photos, did you have extension tubes on too?

Good choice Hamish...i've been looking at these for a while. Still not took the plunge yet though.

Nothing like an external review of the sensor to give you confidence in your choice.....

It made up my mind, compare it to others in the price range....impressive!

Just to add to it...exactly same happened to me and turned out to be lens correction turned on for distortion and CA. As soon as i switched off it went back to normal.
