Hi Ed — Thanks! The spot problem seems to come and go. Sometimes they’re there, and sometimes I don’t find them at all. Of course, backgrounds make a big difference…
I’m a master with the clone tool, though, when one shows up in a bad spot!
The reason I asked, is that for Fathers Day I got a special present – a “Sensor scope” and cleaning kit from Delkin. I looked at the sensor on my 5D, and sure enough I found the specks. I then used the mini vacuum w/brush to remove them. Sensor now clean!

I will be posting a review of SensorScope on my blog tomorrow, and it will include an “after” shot. You can find it on my Flickr page if you want to see it early. Needless to say, I eliminated about a half-dozen annoying specks from the sensor yesterday.
BTW, tell AC I wasn’t comparing her to a house pet (in my comment at Flickr) – I was just commenting that you captured the sense of playfulness (similar to that exhibited by a puppy) to perfection in the two shots of her and her friend. Most kids at her age aren’t so uninhibited when a camera is pointed in their direction (mine sure wasn’t!)

Dear Husband is out of town, Adorable Child has a Birthday Bash tonight, and Polimom’s back is to the wall. As a result, I’m probably out of the loop for a few days, baking cakes and ordering pizzas and supervising …
I’m outside on the patio right now, researching for a post about Obama’s speech in Cairo today. (Added: post’s finally up!) It’s a breezy, not-yet-hot day — and I’m anticipating the arrival of any number of hyper-excited young teenagers …
If bloggers learned nothing else from the Michelle Malkin / SAW incident last month, it should be that providing personal information for purposes of attack or intimidation has no place in an ethical environment. I’m glad to see a burgeoning …
Love those raindrops! And, the shot of the two girls is really nice, too.
Just curious, did the spot problem you were having go away?

Wow, Ed. Nice gift! Maybe we need to have another “get together and see if we can figure out the spots on Polimom’s camera”….?
LOL!!!!
