Good god, this photo makes me nauseous.... something about the pin cushioning ?

I've used a smaller version of this to blow the dust off my camera sensor a few times.

Get to clean area with relatively low dust (i.e. inside a house)
set camera to sensor cleaning/mirror flip up
hold camera with sensor facing ground
blow dust out.
The giottos come in various sizes. Medium or small are better for portability (i.e. camera bag), Large is better for air pushing power.
If those don't work, you'll have to get one of the various cleaning kits and manually remove the dust , or get it professionally cleaned.

the distortion on those pics is like gaming with FOV set way too high -> nausea (similar to too low FOV causing nausea)

Eventually I want to look at more expensive, dedicated lenses though.
that's your standard for "not too bad"?
in short, you're doomedLike I said I'm not looking at spending tons of money, this is just a hobby, not pro. I know a $700 Nikkor macro lens would be better than what I have, but I also don't want to pay that much right now.
Though I keep spending lot of money on misc stuff latetly, I can see how this can be addictive. Just bought a wide angle lens add-on for close to $100, as well as a reverse mount ring.
The nice thing about these add ons is when I get more real lenses in the future it's something extra to experiment with. I also ordered a reverse mount ring.
Now to wait till all of this comes in.
