I bought a 14mm brush from the Canadian Visible dust people. Cost me $A200 for that and the smaller one. The second one is fine for cleaning the externals but then anything would do that.
When you consider that a camera shop charges $100.00 a shot to clean the sensor I see it as money well-spent.
It cleans the sensor beautifully. As I believe I said in a previous thread, a camera-club friend told me how he was shown how the pros at Hasselblad clean their digital backs on their 32 megapixel sensors: On their shirts! But then they don't have to pay for a replacement and I'm not talking about shirts either.
Apparently there is a tough transparent film over the actual sensors so you would have to be pretty rough to cause damage.
I sure am planning to go over for Easter 2007 and would love to meet up and compare notes. I have applied for press credentials.

I had heard similar about the sensor. It is covered with something so you cant really damage it by cleaning but I wouldnt use my shirt. I have my 20D away at the moment getting its sensor cleaned and a better more convieneient way of cleaning would be good. Might see you at Classic Fighters.
