Default Sensor

I am about to purchase a D70. Do the sensors need cleaned periodically?
Is this something that the consumer can do? Is changing lenses the reason
they would get dirty? I would hate to always use the same lense.

It would need to be cleaned, but how often is up for debate, unless
you see something on the image. You can do it yourself, or take it to
a good camrea store.

I agree. There will be dust but you rarely notice any of it. If you do, I
simply blow it off. You may need to wipe it with some lens cleaning solution
using special tool if it's heavily soiled. I have my Canon 300D for 10
months and I haven't had a need to do that yet.
