When I bought my EOS 350D some months back I knew it was going to be an expensive hobby, but I was thinking I would have to buy lenses and a flash. Stuff like that. What I didn’t consider was that the CCD chip in SLR cameras are voulnerable to dust. On old SLRs you’d might get some dust on the film, but that was just that one picture, then the film moved on. So tomorrow I’m shelling out something like 1k NOK (125 USD) for cleaning stuff. And that’s probably just the first buy in. I’d like to get the Visible Dust brushes and kit and everything, but I’ll just settle for the sensor clean pack which is a lot cheaper over here.

Pop by my photoblog to see what I’m up to.

Ah, my purchase of the excellent EOS 350D is going to cost me a lot of money eventually. I already contemplate some new lenses, and I really need to get a decent screen for editing. I currently only have 1024×768 capable screens, which is pretty much just stoneage.
