I've taken over 6500 exposures and change lenses very often. For some reason the M8 seems to draw dirt more quickly then my Nikon or Canon slr bodies but so far a quick shot from my Giotto bulb cleans just fine. Most of my photos are outdoors and a high percentage have clear sky so dirt is very noticeable. I also clean in PS but find that my scans from film require more cleaning then digital. I blow out the M8 about once a week if it needs it or not. If I shoot a lot and am changing lenses often I might clean a couple times a day.
