Daniel and Jayanand - I believe that if either one of you actually  
photograph a cloudless sky or blank piece of paper (to medium gray)  
you will see the evidence of dust on your sensors. Give it a try and  
let me know. It's a very real issue with medium gray areas without  
detail. Sometimes you have to blow up the image a bit to see the  
effects.
