Don't know if this is common knowledge or not,but you are entitled to one free sensor clean at a Canon approved service centre,if your camera is still covered under its one year warranty.(400d at least,dont know about others)
I have just got mine back today all clean and shiny and free

[jonnypb]

do you have to send it off or are there approved centres round the country?

Would be interested to know that as well... Do you just drop it in to a service centre? My 400D is about 8 months old, and though I've had no problems with dust/dirt it may as well have a full going over if it's free

Well I sent mine off,maybe I am mistaken when I say ANY Canon service centre,Im not sure,but certainly the ones stated on their website.

I used this company and they were excellent.
