Noooo dust splatter streaks ;(

Soooooo!

The Visible Dust swabs came today along with the Rocket Blower. I used the method shown by Santa in the video posted earlier, worked wonders and the rocket blower pushes some mighty air, so much so I'm using it inside my PC and car vents/holes now instead of buying canned air :D

The swabs @ £15 for 4 are a bit of a rip really and I used 2 as I chuffed the first one up but I doubt I'll need to use the remaining 2 any time soon.
 
I'm fresh out of pecpads too!

Although they work out cheaper for a pack of 100 so I will use these last 2 and buy fluid + pecpads and wrap it as suggested :D

Aye iI watched a video of a very cool guy cleaning the 5D Mk2 sensor and he used the swabs which worked brilliantly hence why I ordered them too and a rocket blower!

On digi rev, if you order the little camera kit for £7 it comes with a rocket blower and a micro fibre cloth. Quite the bargain.
 
Too late now :p

I've noticed one dust spec on the 2nd pic actually, it's so faint at F10 it's a non issue though. It may even shift when the power is cycled and dust clean kicks in :p

You guys read the thread with eyes yep? :-P

The blobs are eclipse fluid deposits that dried during cleaning as mentioned earlier. Nothing more and nowhere else. And all clean now as per pic above.
