I happen to be quite comfortable with not having to clean my sensor unless I've gotten some very sticky pollen on my sensor. I've known people to have owned their E-1's for years and have yet to get a single bit of visible dust on their resulting images... and only occasionally (one person quoted me they do this every two years if it needs it or not) do they actually have the sensor and camera cleaned and conditioned.

There are lengthy threads on the internet bemoaning sensor dust issues. It is just one of the many things I'm not concerned with.

I've never had a single instance of dust on my images from my D200. Dust on my LCD screens, and dust on the prints, but none on the images themselves. I have had shadows cast by the dust............. ;)

Stop your lens down to f/16 (or smaller) and take a few shots and see what you think. I'm guessing the dust bunnies are there... they're just hiding behind fast wide open apertures. :-)

You dont get it..... Its a joke.
He doesnt have any dust on the images. Just shadows from dust on the sensor. Get it.

ARGH! I got it. When I read that the first time I thought it was an "odd way to phrase it", but didn't realize what he really meant. Duh. Thanks for waking me up. :-)
