I have to clean my M8 sensor relatively frequently, perhaps because I live in a dry, dusty place, so every lens change outdoors almost invariably lets in some dust (yes, I make sure the camera is off, turn away from wind etc.). On the other hand, I have never had to clean the sensor on my Olympus E3. I prefer the M8 for obvious reasons, but would enjoy it even more if it had the self-cleaning feature.
