Cleaning my 30D

[dmx005]

I recently got a rocket blower to remove some dust from the camera mirror but there are still noticeable particles on some shots..

What the most commonly used mirror cleaner or device recommended by the experts that reside here?

Should I get it cleaned professionally?

The dust is on the sensor, not the mirror. You need to put the camera in cleaning mode (check the manual), which raises the mirror and exposes the sensor.

When I used to clean your 30D (before you owned it) I used Dust-Aid - and it was spot on!
Try it!
I'm sure I mentioned it on here before...
