I'd love to know from all the happy D3x owners out there how much trouble it is to clean the sensor of the D3x, and how often you find it necessary. I realize dusty environments are worse, and living in the relatively moist Pacific Northwest, rain is more of a problem than dust. But even here, in the summer, it can be pretty dry.
I have a D700 and have been quite happy with the automated sensor cleaning compared to my previous D200 and D70. I know it sounds silly, but I would like to spring for a D3x in a few months were it not for the fact that one needs to manually clean the sensor of a $7,500 camera. I have a hard time getting my head around that.
Thanks for sharing your experience.
