I use these on my D7100. Once I got the hang of it these quickly became an essential item in my gear bag.

I use these swabs, along with a few drops of their cleaning solution, to clean my Nikon D52000 sensor. They are sealed and have absolutely no dust or debris on them. They are not abrasive and they clean off all dust and spots. You can't ask for more than that.

I occasionally need to clean dust off of my camera sensor. These swabs are clean and easy to use, in conjunction with Eclipse liquid, in cleaning.

Product works great for me. I'd suggest you get a manifying sensor loupe to see the small specs you may have missed with your swab.

We use the swabs along with the Eclipse Cleaner to clean optical sensors. The combination works wonders.

Keep your fingers off your sensor and you should never need these

I use these swabs with their cleaning solution to clean my camera sensors and lenses. It leaves no dust and does the job well, saving the exhorbitant cleaning bill if I had to send the equipment into a service center, not to mention the downtime while the camera is gone.

Great to clean sensors. Unfortunately, you need the actual fluid, which is separate. I use Eclipse and every time I travel, I can't bring that solution on the plane so these swabs end up staying home. Not sure if the pre-moistened swabs are safe to carry on planes, but those would be more convenient.

These swabs really did the job in cleaning my filthy sensor. Just follow the easy directions and you should have no problems.

First time to try cleaning a DSLR sensor. Followed the instructions, had good light and with one pass of the swab in each direction the black spot on the sensor was removed. Pretty simple.

Great product, works very well. Would be 5 stars if not so expensive.

These swabs are very expensive but I have been extremely happy with this product as I am living in Africa and had some trouble getting my D300 and its sensor cleaned here. I order it through a friend. While this product is easy to use, just remember that you don't clean your DSLR like your car engine.

quick and easy with eclipse fluid. although pricey, it's still far less than a professional cleaning

Feel product is over rated, did not remove spots as advertised. Have ordered Delkin swabs, hope they perform better//////

hopefully the price will drop soon and please for the love of photography DO NOT clean your sensor in a parking lot, be nice to your gear clean it a home sitting down and check your work prior to go on shooting, you may need a second cleaning, it is impossible to clean your sensor at the first shot, the product work well but not that well.

I was nervous about cleaning my sensor , i didnt want to ruin it , but after using these swabs ( i had them in the kit) they worked well in the first pass , i shot at f32 to check for dust and found it to be almost nonexistent, i never really shoot above f16 so for my purposes they worked nearly flawlessly. They seem pricy at first but when you compare to what it costs to have your gear cleaned time and time again the cost seems a whole lot better

There was some dirt(dry dust )on the swabs right when I opened the box, , i used a rubber blower to blow it off, i used 4 swabs to clean , I spent almost $4. per swab .16.00 per cleaning is very aggressive plus the liquid. The final clenaing results is ok, but prefer to use dry tool to rid dust. I switched to a new brand, seem better in price and quality.

The first few cleanings these swabs worked wonderfully with the Eclipse solution. As time wore on, more dust accumulated on the sensor and the swabs became less and less effective. I don't know if it's the swabs or the solution, but upon switching brands, the frequency with which I have had to clean my sensor has decreased and it has been easier to clean with 1 swab instead of 2 or 3.

Sensor Swabs are easy to use and relatively inexpensive. I was intimidated to use them fearing that I would damage my CCD, but I've been cleaning my CCD without any harm. I highly recommend this product if you have a dirty CCD and want a cheaper alternative than sending your camera to a camera shop for cleaning.

I was a little nervous about swiping anything across my camera sensor, but this was quick and easy and removed the dust very efficiently. The initial cost seems a little high with the solution but remember you get 12 applications.

It doesn't get easier than this ! I NEVER tried cleaning a sensor before, and I'm to be honest not one of those super tech geeks either.. A couple of drops of Eclipse on each side of the Sensor Swab, a wipe to the right, turn the Sensor Swab, and a wipe back to the left - that's it ! My images all came out full of specs, and this removed 99 % of them. Do yourself a favor and take a photo of a white surface on your lowest apperature before and after, then you'll see the difference. NEVER again a profesional camera cleaning for me - I'll do it myself (but as always with caution). Check photographicsolutions.com for guidelines.
