I know that some f you, who are professionals, surely must clean your own sensors. I am wondering how many of you do this yourselves. One of my Canon T3i tutorials shows how it is done. Still, I am wondering if it is reasonably safe to do this. I have never done this myself and would appreciate knowing if it is a task that one can do or should the camera be taken to a camera shop?

Clean your own.

Thanks a lot! I feel more comfortable now, cleaning my own sensor. Also, just saw/realized there is a search on the site that takes me quite a ways back in the forum. It's a good day. Thanks again.
