I prefer a blower brush. One of these is always in my camera bag:

I read an article which recommended going to the drug store and getting an ear syringe, which is cheap, and works just fine. It looks very similar to the the rocket blower, without the fins.

Have been using a NOSE sucker outter... lol
It works well and I can lightly blow out dust or squeez a little harder if need be. Cost about 2.50 at ant drug store...

That's why I never do that. If there is dirt on the sensor, the Rocket can often remove it, but I never randomly shoot air inside the camera.

Been said but Gittos, Rocket Blower. I bought the smaller one to carry in the camera bag. Some days wish I purchased the larger one for when I have the camera in the house! Also, good for computer key boards or other projects where you need a dusting! Have fun.

Thanks to everyone who responded. Based on your feedback, I have just ordered the large Giottos Rocket Air Blaster.
