  • from where I can buy this tools?

  • Great vid

    

  • Awesome - thank you kindly.

  • lol 3:10 :P

  • it would be sweet if they added a seal....from the factory. clear glass or whatever top quality ofcourse so that it creates an airtight compartment.

  • Thanks for the video, very informative!

  • Thanks for posting this. It helped me clean my lens perfectly.

  • Wet cleaning does not work for me. Perhaps some dust clings to the wipe, but there is always crap left behind, at best it just gets moved to edges/corners. Found out that the "sensor stamp" is a Dust-Aid Platinum kit, curiously unavailable with major US retailers. I could not find a matching product for the "sensor pen", ordered a Lenspen LENSK1A. Is it actually a lens cleaning pen?

  • thank for this vid, its helped me out. most of the tips, i guessed right myself, but i didnt know about oil on sensor sides

    cheers

  • @kai085 I only use a wet cleaning under extreme circumstances. I've cleaned somewhere in the neighborhood of 15,000 sensors working at Lens Rentals, and contrary to what SLRist says, wet cleaning leaves behind all kinds of lint and residue that must be cleaned off afterwards. I've used literally every liquid and applicator in existence, and not one of them can be used without subsequently using dry methods to remove the mess that wet cleaning causes. However, all methods require much practice.
