Three years ago I decided to get a digital SLR so I bought a * ist DL and
the kit lens, mostly because of the lens compatibility. I've been very
pleased with it. However I think something got inside of it while changing
lenses. For quite some time there have been some spots in the photos that
shouldn't be there. It's easily seen here:

It's almost half way up the first tower then another bigger one inbetwen the
first two towers near the bottom. When I try to fix something it almost
always leads to disaster. Is this something that's easily dealt with?
There are numerous sensor cleaning devices on the market. I'm lazy (and
not a little bit clumsy) - I take my cameras to a KNOWN GOOD service
tech and have the sensor cleaned when I need it done.
While looking at bags at Best Buy recently I found a nice Lowepro (all of my
bags are Lowepro) that was being blown out too cheap ($12.99) to pass up so
I bought two even though I wasn't sure what I'd put in one. It's the EX 140
and isn't in this year's catalog. I did some experimentation and found that
I can lay my *ist DL on its back with the kit lens and hood on and the
height is perfect. There's a teeny bit of wiggle room on the bottom but
that's easily remedied. Two of the usual Lowepro Velcro type dividers are
included. There's a front compartment and either my Pentax-FA 28-90mm or
Tamron 75-300mm will fit in there. It's a bit snug with the Tamron but it
fits.
The eternal quest - the perfect bag is always the one you're going to
buy next.
