I know, Hoppy, I know - but there's so much said about dust on sensors I 
just thought I should throw that point in now. I always hated dust when I 
was working in the darkroom, I hated it even more when scanning, and I can 
live with it now I shoot a lot less film. BTW, I'm in the process of setting 
up a darkroom again after a long time without - I'm pro film AND pro digital!

Nick and Chris,
I'm sure it's just a minor consideration to be aware of.
My post was just meant to be a light hearted (and pro-film) jibe, following
the very earnest and informative discussion.
Just wait until the release of the M digital, with its quantum drive bypass
filter. When it detects the dust speck, it seamlessly performs a micro time
travel shift to restore the image state to the nanosecond prior to the
dust's arrival.


Cheers
Hoppy
I don' know how much longer the sensor can take it, cap'n.
