Customer Reviews

Very nice kit.
I have been using the "Copperhill method" for cleaning my DSLR sensors when they capture enough dust to become a problem. That only happens once every several months of heavy use though, and I was looking for a "kit" style solution to the problem that would fit in my camera bag, and be ready when I felt the need to clean a sensor. This little kit is a gem. It is exactly the same as the Copperhill method I have been using, but it is assembled in a nice, small zipper case that fits in a pocket on a camera bag. It gives you enough supplies to clean your sensor about 5 times. If you want to buy bulk PEC pads, and bulk methyl alcohol, you can refill the kit over and over. For it's price though, it's not a bad once per year expense to just buy a new kit. Very nice product.

Awesome sensor cleaner!
My friends freaked when I told them that I was out on a 2 week cruise and had to clean my sensor on the Canon 40D I had with me!

"Send it to Canon!", "Never clean it yourself!"...

Huh? What's the big deal? I had unacceptable crap on the sensor, and didn't liek the idea of the dust delete feature, as I still would have covered up pixels. And the debris was pretty bad.

Took me like 60 seconds total!

Outstanding quality, and the cleaner was perfect for my 40D's APS-C sensor.

Bogus Exception

Great Product
I had major dust problems on my camera's sensor. (It was literally ruining my photos beyond basic photoshop repair.) After using this product, I was able to remove about 97% of the dust I had on my sensor in just a few swipes. I did find it more difficult to get the corners but, in the end, was able to get it all cleared out. I did not find that reusing one end redeposited dust back on the sensor. I did use both sides, flipped the cloth over (wasn't easy getting the rubber band back on) and used both sides again and felt like I was able to get the sensor really clean. (Getting at least 4 swipes with one stick was important for me while considering the cost of these things)

I will say however, that it's very important to clean the rest of the camera (inside and out) before cleaning the sensor. Also make sure the space you are working on is clean. I did not do either of those and became extremely frustrated when dust and fibers from the camera's mirror/viewfinder section and my dirty work environment was getting on the sensor. I recommend using a lens cleaning cloth or a microfiber cloth of some kind to work on.

There are tons of websites and youtube videos out there with tutorials on cleaning your camera's sensor. Some better than others. Just google 'sensor cleaning' and add in the model of your camera. Lots of helpful websites came up for my Canon 30d.
