Do you avoid these area because of your DSLR?
I'm beginning to notice dust images in many shots
taken with DSLRs, specifically, large open areas like parts of the sky or any other single-shade surfaces. I'm wondering if anyone is consciously cropping or avoiding such areas in order to avoid dust images? I've even seen dust in test shots taken in camera reviews. -Rich |

I just take cleaning the sensor as part of regular maintenance, like cleaning lenses. I can't really pick and choose, if a client wants a shot at the beach, that's where we go to shoot. -- Skip Middleton http://www.shadowcatcherimagery.com |

Well, after everyone talked about the Sigma here I checked the review in dpreview and saw dust in one of the shots. There was also a fellow who just went on safari who suggested that carrying two DSLR bodies with permanent lenses instead of changing them would be a good idea due to chances of getting dust on the sensor. -Rich |

The Sigma has more than dust problems. |
