"Ordinary dust" is not the likely cause as the "clean image senso"r menu option removes ordinary dust.

A blower doesn't remove lubricant spots, but I'm reading a fair number of reports (from folks with a "spot" problem on D600s) saying that a good blow gets all or the majority of spots off. Which anecdote shall we believe today?

Didn't work for me - I needed a wet clean after 3 weeks at which point I could see several blobs in skies even at landscape apertures (F8). Closer inspection found around 30 all unmoved by vigorous blowing.
