Do you have the Ricoh sensor cleaning tool? It works pretty well.

No, just a set of swabs and come cleaning fluid. Will look into the Rocih tool.

When you describe dust getting back on the sensor over and over, it makes me think there might be dust inside the camera and not only on the sensor/mirror. Did you try to blow some dry air inside, mirror up, to get rid of it maybe ?

With my K100D (not Super) sometimes I had the feeling that if there was one particle of dust in a room, it would get attracted to the sensor, like a black hole Cleaning it was boring.
