I had an Olympus E300 and then an Olympus E500 and found the dust
removal system to be very effective. I never had to clean the sensor.

The anti-dust "shake" techniques are very ineffective at best, and a marketing gimmick at worst. If you want a clean sensor, you have to take steps to clean it manually (just like it says in the manual for the Olympus cameras). |

If you don't change lenses often, If you don't check for dust (small aperture, oof, light BG) then it isn't put to the test. Don't top post.
