True but it seems like a bigger deal with digital sensors

With film you were careful and for the most part dust was manageable 

With digital it doesn't matter what you do..... dust eventually covers your sensor  

 

You are right though, I could never keep 4X5 film clean in a changing bag

and I guess we relied on film and paper manufactures to control the dust on their end?

No - it is just that we only have it on the sensor now instead of throughout the whole process. That tends to concentrate our displeasure on the one item.

You are right....I really never thought of it like that .
