I just recently got a new dSLR camera to play with, but am curious as to what i need to clean it when the need arises. I've read on some places people will say things like, "get a good cleaning kit", but failed to elaborate on what "good" is. So what do i need to help clean dust/finger prints off my lens, off the sensor/mirrors...etc.

I'd prefer to just buy a kit on amazon or something that would have what i need, but if its better to hunt for individuall items, im open for that too. So suggestions, knowledge is greatly appreciated.
 
Get your self a Giotto Rocket Blower at least. A good microfiber cloth (soft, good size, no pilling). A lens brush to be used ONLY for your lenses (Lens Pen). You can also use Lens Tissues, but Microfiber is fine, just keep it clean (wash often and only use for the lens).

Take a look at this guide for sensor cleaning. It will give you some options for cleaning kits.
