Dots on my DSLR sensor...WTF

I just got a an adaptor for my FD 50mm lens to be mounted on Canon T2i. After taking accouple of photos I noticed dot on my images. Check the lens an found everything to be clean. I check the sensor with in the camera and saw two specks of dust on it. Before I did anything drastic, I googled up some suggestions on how to clean the sensor. So far, I've tried blowing of the dust with a rubber air hand pump. That didn't work. I took some time to do some more research and came across a blog that suggested a Len Pen to clean out the sensor, so I went and bought one at a camera store. It cost me $20 bucks but it didn't work.
The dots were still there and I was getting desperate. I called a fix shop in Hollywood FL to help me out. I've been to the Camera Clinic before and they were extremely helpful. I call them and told them what was up with my DSLR sensor. They said they can fix it but it would cost me about $60 bucks. Damn it, I thought, how am I going to deal with this every time I open my camera to change the lens if this is gonna happen every time. There has got to be a least expensive way to fix my sensor and so I went back to the web to read for solution. What I found was these Sensor Swabs . Now this thing is inexpensive and works 99% of the time. I checked reviews on the Sensor Swab before I purchase and everyone said that this is the number one thing to use when nothing eles works to fix the sensor. Here is a youtube video about it how it works. Its comes with plastic swabs, lens cleaners and a bottle of liquid cleaner. One thing to know about this pack I got, If you are a 550/T2i owner like me, you will find that the plastic swab does not fit inside the camera sensor, or at least the pack I bought. I had to remove the sheet cleaner wrapped around the swab and cut the sides of the swab to make it fit inside. I recommend to do this in a dust free environment. Also there might be an issue traveling with this Sensor Swab's cleaning liquid. The bottle is filled methanol, which is an explosive liquid. There is however a better liquid cleaner that is natural and drys really fast. Here is a video on the comparison of different brands on this link. I hope this info help you out if you have this problem.

Its been a minute...NEW T2i camera and photo shoot with FLYING COLORS

So yeah, Ive been kinda slacking on the whole blog thing do to just plan work....Alot has happen since then. I got a chance to be briefly on a set of this independent comedy shot on the Canon 7D. The picture, entitled "Well done" was being filmed with a DSLR photography camera. This was my first time seeing one of these revolutionary cameras in action and I was there to witness its processess. I was working with sound man and friend Alex Alvarez and was working as a boom operator. I notice the speed of light set ups and shoot was quite fast and did not take forever to do. The DSLR were great for low leve light and so the amount of lights were very small. Alot of LED lights were used in the production as well as a small ARRIs light kit. I was only there for the first day and last day of shooting and saw that toward the end of the production the director end up substituting for the cinematographer and used the Canon T2i.
Personally, I saw the future of what an independent set might look like. Small. Fast. The DSLR revolution is there.
SOOO I HAD TO GET ONE!!! LOL Bought me the Canon T2i. I love the camera, its so different from my old Rebel XT. The screen was huge and was great to see what I was shooting on video mode and adjusting the exposure. Very good camera. I tested on a photo shoot with Flying Colors Apparel http://www.facebook.com/flyingcolorsapparel?ref=ts and had great results. Here is some photos.
