There was a Pentax shooter, a retired Nikon Rep from Washington DC (I think), who gave an interesting commentary to the list a couple of years ago. I don't know if anyone saved it... >From what I remember, he discounted most issues of dust. He had new lenses out of the box with minor dust in them... just the process of the lens breathing. Some customers even insisted that it be cleaned out. He got the tech's to do it, but it made no difference as the dust would be back shortly. He never found it mattered in picture quality.
