Gives detailed instruction to clean digital camera sensor of dust. The Koh Hepa Jet Air blasts clean pure air giving you the confidence and peace of mind that you are not introducing dust onto your sensitive digital equipment. Conventional bulbs such as the rocket air, have no filter and introduce air filled with dust right on to your sensor. You may not see it immediately, but you will introduce dust inside the camera chamber when using a conventional bulb. Don't take chances with your precious digital equipment. Use the Ultimate Air Bulb, the Koh Hepa Jet Air.

  • And the name of the product is???

  • @Vamp1963

    Koh Hepa Jet II. Also, sold under Optex Hepa Jet II (Gentec International)

  • I like the design...yes cleaner air to knock the "loose" dust from the sensor; however, the problem that most often arises is when little specs of dust accumulate on the sensor and the sensor is subject to a decent temperature delta where condensation can occur. When this event happens the dust specs then become specs of mud (well sort-of) that when dries adheres to the sensor making it cleanable "only" via the "web" swab method.

  • @motleypixel

    By using the Hepa Jet II instead of conventional blowers, you will introduce less dust and humidity, thus reducing the number of times you will need to perform a wet swab method. The Hepa jet II removes humidity as well as dust so the incident of fused dust spec due to condensation is reduced.

  • how much is one of these?

  • @Z3sty367

    prices range from 24.99 to 29.99 depending upon the dealer.

  • $30? Not worth it for a gimmicky filter. You'll be blowing around dust into your camera either way from the surrounding atmosphere, so there really is no reason for a filter. The best bet is to find a place with the least amount of dust possible to clean your sensor.

  • it looks like a sex toy

  • i see dust in the view finderbut the mirror don't have any dust ..can you help me ?

  • @KohInternational So less dust & humidity not none?

  • well the concept is good... but in general, this tutorial is giving bad advice. The golden rule for sensor cleaning is... DO NOT apply air pumps or any other kind of strong air blasts into the mirror box, you run a very high risk of hitting the lubricating compounds from the mirror mechanism and spraying it all over the sensor!!!!

    You should apply a very low pressure puff of air, just enough to float loose dust out of the camera... then use a sensor swab to carefully remove dust from the sensor.

  • Sir, this is a piece of shit. Your product is bullshit.

  • I like it. as filtered air goes in, dust and air flows out of the camera. Zoom lenses are the worst, drawing in dust around the outer movable sleeve, possibly migrating into the camera. I found a great way to check for dust, take the highest resolution image you can with the highest Fstop available. of the a clear featureless blue sky, upload it to the PC, then zoom it 100%, then scroll around on it, you'll find any dust or grease. Works quite nicely for a quick check.
