Hi Dave, I have considered cleaning the sensor as part of routine maintenance, not sure if it needs it. I think that Matt’s advice is worth taking on board. A good kit seems to cost around the same price of getting it done professionally.
I would hate to write off a camera for the sake of DIY when the fix could be a lot less than 10% of the camera cost.

I really wouldn't try doing it yourself. The sensor is easily knackered and if you damage it you will be buying a new camera. I get mine cleaned when it needs it for about £50 (I think). This way I am covered if it is wrecked. I know of large photographic departments that considered training someone to clean sensors but soon realised that one mistake would wipe out all the savings. The job requires practice and a lightness of touch and is really best left to someone that has had plenty of experience.

Thanks John, I seem to have a couple of spots of dirt appeared on my D5100 sensor, tried blowing it off without success, thinking about buying a swab kit, wonder if you've had to clean any of yours in the past
