I admit I was skeptical about how easy this looked from the video and because I have used similar swabs in the past (maybe incorrectly, I wonder) with no success, yet today when I cleaned my DSLR’s sensor and took a test shot it appears to be as clean as if I had sent it to the manufacturer for cleaning (which I used to do when I lived near a service centre).
Thank you for this, I can almost guarantee that I will buy these again when I’ve used up the swabs that came in this kit.
Tuve que comprar este pequeo kit para limpiar el sensor de mi cmara. Producto perfecto y al venir al vaco te aseguras que no est contaminado con restos de polvo. La calidad es excepcional. Realmente recomendado.
Macht was es soll, einfach und effektiv. Gab noch n Rabatt drauf somit fr 10x Sensor reinigen 16 gezahlt. Lohnt sich definitiv.
Wenn man es vorher noch nicht selber gemacht hat einfach n kurzes Tutorial auf YouTube anschauen.
As an avid photographer I’m looking to keep my kit in tip top condition K&F are one of my go to brands and I trust the products 100%. Sensor cleaning is expensive and learned to do it myself! The swabs are double ended so very convenient. simple and easy to use ant a great price! I would recommend this product and any K&F product without hesitatio
I thought that the double ended swabs was a god idea.
A drop of solution one end then a dry sweep with the other.
Not sure if it is my camera or not, but a very tight fit, for the sensor.
Certainly looks as if it has done a great job, dust spots etc, gone, so a fantastic job done.
Unfortunately, I live in a very dusty area, so I will be cleaning it quite a bit.
I certainly think that the concept of the double ended swab is great.
Just a pity that they are so tight on sensor.
I will have to try them on another camera, to find out if it is just my camera or not.
Would I buy this again, even with the tight fit on my camera, YES I would.
Would I recommend this product. Yes I would, but making sure that they understood my little problem.
Hope this helps.
I was getting quite a few spots in my photos and I needed to get my sensor cleaned in a hurry. I normally take it into a service but I thought I’d try these. I used a single swab with a single pass on each end. There was only just enough room in my D810 to get the swab on the sensor and the swab scraped the sides as I pushed it down. It covered the sensor OK though. I used two passes (on on each end of a swab). I just shot an f11 test shot of the sky and yay! No spots
These swabs worked well but did need some sensor cleaning fluid because there were oil spots from the shutter (Nikon D600) and not just dust (also residue from the wet sensor cleaning swabs!). I bought the sensor cleaning fluid from Camarthan Cameras and it didn’t leave any residue. Finally I have a clean sensor.
I initially made the mistake of buying wet sensor cleaning swabs. These were a huge waste of money as they left a large amount of residue on the sensor and I threw them away.
This was the first time I’ve cleaned my sensor and it took me a while to work out that the camera battery needs to be fully charged before the mirror will lock up.
This is the 3rd or 4th pack of these that I have purchased (with 4 cameras to clean you go through them) I usually use 2 or three of these per clean (along with eclipse fluid or IPA) work well & will continue to buy them.
Good price for the sensor cleaners, use blower first then use one swab dry, then check if spots have been removed if not apply cleaner fluid to swab and swipe, check again. A simple process and good swabs.
Easy to use, good value for money.
Those little swabs are vital if you have a mirrorless kit as you really risk to ruin your full set if some dust or hair enters the camera and lands on the sensor.
I had just bought a second hand Nikon D750 and when I brought my first photos into Lightroom they were covered in spots. I bought this kit and used just one swab and they were all gone. It saved me a fortune in going to a camera shop and I still have plenty left.
I had bought visible dust cleaner kit and it left sensor worse than when i started so decided to buy K&F as last resort. Wow what a difference. First swab cleaned amazing leaving just 3 faint spots. 2nd swab left just 1 very faint (when dehazed 100% and clarity 60%) which i can live with. Wish id bought these first as much cheaper too with 14 swaps and large bottle of cleaner and gloves which are touchscreen friendly.
I used these on my venerable Nikon D3x, which is the only one in the D3 series that wasn’t equipped with some form of sensor cleaning tech – owing to the 24mp sensor which was a huge tech boost at the time.
I’d used other cheaper brand ones, but they always left some spots/shuffled other specks around. These got rid of most* of the dust on the sensor.
Great swabs, I wish I’d had a better fluid to go with them. People recommend the Eclipse solution and I’m looking to get that next.
* – I’ve never managed to entirely remove all specks from my sensor, your mileage may vary on cleaning efficiency. If you’re looking to do this yourself, look up ‘Nigel Danson Sensor Cleaning’ and check out his video on it – it really improved the dust removal rate for me personally.
Good quality swabs. Used them to clean sensor in canon R5 – used some other brand cleaning fluid – sensor is clean and no scratches. Definitely will use it again.
I’ve ordered quite a few items from K&F concept and they’ve always been great value for money, and this sensor cleaning kit is no different. Easy to use and clear instructions, I had a very annoying dust spot on my camera sensor, it’s gone now thanks to this kit. Highly recommended.
