I need to clean my 20d and the lense as I am getting some marks on my images. Anything particular I need or just a bog standard kit from Jessops ? Also, anything I need to take care with or do specifically ?

Be afraid... be VERY afraid.

It has to be done properly or you'll make it worse. There are a few threads on here covering various products (search the last month). Personally, I send mine off to get it done now, as when I tried it, I made a pigs ear.

Steve went to Gray's IIRC (highly recommended)

But you might want to consider www.fixationUK.com - they did mine while I waited, now I'm keeping dust at bay with a blower, 'til it needs the next really good clean.....
