Recently I have spotted some dust spots on the sensor. As most will know, D600 was whack for the oil/dust spots issue since the launched. I bought the D600 (used) knowing this issue due to the low price. Nevertheless, my experience is only with dusts. No oil stain so far.
I am ready to face the dust issue as my past experience with Canon 1Dmark2 and other DSLR faces the same dust issue. Recently D610 was launched and some D600 users are feeling lousy. For me, I still love this great value Fullframe DSLR. And will clean the sensor myself once a while. It is like cleaning our lens etc. Not too much of a chore. All DSLRs will some day face such issue as interchanging lens outside will attract dust.
The amazing thing I want to highlight is Olympus camera are free of dust even for the mirrorless OM-D. I believe their sensor self -leaning (Shaker) is the best in the market. I used OM-D for one year and no dust spots at all. The other reason is also maybe because of the smaller size sensor thus attract less dust. There is also no moving mirror inside the mirrorless camera thus reducing the "sucking" effect of dust.
I invested a sensor cleaner brush Artic Butterfly. It cost about $99 SGD. Boy it works very well. The anti-static brush does remove the dusts completely. More info can be found in their web. The brush is great for dry dust.
However, do beware of the CHINA made wet swap on the right of the photo. DO NOT BUY. The SWAP is so wet and once you clean the sensor, the residue of the alcohol is left on the AA filter protecting the sensor. I need to use a cotton bud to slowly wipe it clean. It is a risky thing to do. Thank God that the stain was removed completely . No more such stuff anymore.
I have order swap from USA's Copperhill image. I have read good review and is willing to try.
