If you find spots on the pictures, always appearing at about the same positions, then the sensor needs cleaning to remove the dust or whatever that cause the porblem. Otherwise leave the sensor alone.
It happens more often to those who change lens regularly, especially the professionals, not you and me.
2. CMOS sensor and CCD sensor are two different means of capturing images. There are pros and cons of each, but generally, CMOS sensor are more common in dSLR, particularly Canon and high end Nikons, and CCDs are usually found in compact P&S.
The choice of sensor does not arise out of necessity as such, although it is generally believed that CMOS consumes less power.
You can read more on the subject in this article .
3. Memory cards, if that is what you mean, has dropped in price tremendously and if you buy the latest dSLR,
you can expect it to accept high speed memory cards that come in 4 gig, 8 gig, 16 gig or even 32 gig capacity.
For average users, 4 to 8 gig is more than enough unless you want to take a lot of movie clips.
4. Remote control comes in 2 forms, infra red remote control has a shorter range and lets you take your own pictures.
Wireless remote control lets you do more and usually is hooked up to the computer. It is sometimes used in monitoring and capturing pictures of birds and wild animals.
