Digital Survival Kit - Type-3 (24mm) Sensor Swabs, PEC-PAD Photo Wipes, E-Wipe Packet, Aeroclipse Optic Cleaner Non-Flamable Solution - Camera Cleaning Kit with Travel Bag

If you have a DSLR/Mirrorless camera and use more than one lens, EVENTUALLY you will end up with stubborn dust on your sensor or a fingerprint/smudge on your lens. This could derail a photo shoot if it happens in the field, so it's good to be able to clean your own camera and lenses. If you use this kit with care and as directed it will get things clean.This kit includes swabs for cleaning your sensor, non-abrasive "pec pads" for cleaning lenses and some pre-moistened/wrapped "pec pads" (like wet naps) that are easy to carry for cleaning emergencies when you don't have the whole kit with you. It also includes a carry pouch to keep all the cleaning supplies organized.Be sure to order the right size swabs for the size of your camera's sensor. Also this manufacturer offers a choice of cleaning solutions. One uses a flammable (alcohol I think) solvent and the other one is non flammable. They say both solutions work equally well. The first type dries quicker but may not be allowed on airplanes because it is flammable. On amazon you should be able to get identical kits with your choice of solution.Be sure to read the full instructions on the vendor's website before using!! Most people who get "bad" results either used too much or too little cleaning fluid. Whether you are cleaning a lens or sensor, try using a bulb blower or lens brush to get rid of the dust first (don't use canned air or high power blowers, it can damage the camera). If all else fails, use these wet cleaning pads. These pads are super clean and non-abrasive, but it's still possible to scratch something if the dirt you are trying to get off is abrasive, like sand.Overall, these are cheaper than taking your camera to a shop, if you can even find a "pro" camera shop that does cleanings these days, the last one near me closed ages ago. It's also better than sending your camera to the manufacturer for cleaning which could leave you without your camera for weeks.

Works great with cleaning my dslr lend and sensors

This product does an excellent job cleaning the sensor. With that said, you still need to be VERY careful when doing this. The sensor is extremely delicate and if you are not careful you can still damage it. This kit will make it less likely and it does a thorough job. The pads are also great for cleaning other surfaces, such as scanner beds.

I've used other sensor cleaning tools - and this one comes with decent instructions and it does work -First, I don't like to have to clean the sensors in my cameras - I try very hard to keep anything that could land on the sensor away from the sensor - So I don't have to clean the sensors very often.When I do have to clean, I try to make time to do the cleaning at a stable, very well lit and clean location.Under those conditions, this was relatively easy to use. The instructions were clear and you just have to be sure you can see everything and go through the process.On a FX sensor Nikon DSLR, the sensor is about 45mm inside the camera from the mounting flange - probably the deepest set back of the 35mm cameras - so its a little trickier than a mirrorless of even other brands.The cleaning swab did fit in but was a little tight getting it to the very edges of the sensor -Having done it once, it will be easier the next time.This did remove two spots on the sensor - possibly an oil mark - the sensor now comes up nice and clean with nothing showing in the frame - so success.

I was expecting this to be the premier solution for wet cleaning a full frame DSLR sensor. I had used another cleaning solution in the past which I thought was just a generic liquid in comparison. I found that this cleaning solution did not evaporate as quickly. It tended to left behind streaks on the sensor. This surprised me because in the past I’ve read reviews stating this evaporated quickly. All in all I was able to use this cleaning solution to successfully clean my DSLR sensor, but it did take a little more effort on my part. All in all, it will work to wet clean a sensor. You just need a little more experience when using this liquid.
