Just imagine what happens when you are changing lenses in a desert with
fine sand and there's a wind blowing (usual ?) Or a sandy beach. Or ... ...
almost any place. Or focussing a lens in a sandy desert - or construction
site etc etc.

The point Moose made to Jochen about the effect of the little hair on  photo
quality is very valid. Imperfections, especially dark-coloured ones and near
the front, have little or no perceptible effect on the picture quality.

However, in my opinion, beware dirt etc on the rear element; and any kind of
light-coloured haze which will bounce light around, reducing contrast and
detail .

And just imagine what will get into the CCD on that fine
interchangeable lens digital SLR. And just imagine trying to clean
that.
