Yes, that does help, and it seems to work impressively well. Also, due the new coatings on the sensor and AA-filter assembly and the dust shaker it seems to trap dust a lot less. It is actually a lot better than on my old 40D, which I think is truly amazing, considering the size of the sensor.
Even so, changing lenses in a dusty environment as mentioned in my earlier reply is a definite no-no without any protection at all <img src='http://forum.photozone.de/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/biggrin.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='' />.
Well, as an amteur photographer i am less worried about depreciation <img src='http://forum.photozone.de/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/biggrin.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='' />, although I'd hate to have to replace anything because of sand or dust entering my equipment - I don't think I could afford to right now ... <img src='http://forum.photozone.de/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/biggrin.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='' />
Kind regards, Wim

I guess I'd be a little unhappy about getting sand in one of my Zeiss lenses, but the camera body doesn't bother me that much. I usually calculate the value depreciation on a body so it pays for itself in 2-3 years. The lenses are a longer-term investment, so I hope they stay in good shape for many, many years.
