Cleaning 6 years old super dirty sensor was no brainer with these swabs. It took me all but 2 minutes. Beats $75 cost service offered by my local photo retailer.

My sensor always seemed to have a little dust on it no matter how much I blasted it. These took everything off in two swipes. I am very happy with them. Some might say they are spendy, but I am sold. They are very easy to throw in a bag and go without fear of spilling.

Definitely noticed the removal of certain specks and dots that lingered after other cleaning methods. The instructions could have been a bit more clear, perhaps a demonstrative diagram would help.

This was very easy to use. I did have to use two of them to get my sensor clean, but I think it was partly my fault that it didn't come clean with just one.

I had spots on my sensor and this removed them without having to pay a professional $60 to do it for me. The sensor was easy to clean with these and I will get 2 more cleanings with the less than $20 I spent here.

I was terrified at first to clean my sensor. Watched the video over and over. Followed the directions exactly. Dust gone. Sensor clean. Very happy me.

I would buy the solution and the dry swab next time because these tend to dry out. You're not saving any money on these vs. buying the swabs & solution because you're probably going to end up buying solution anyway.

Worked well, but needed two for each sensor to really get it done correctly, but otherwise worked well

When the blower would not get the sensor clean this did the trick and didn't cost me $200 to send it to Nikon to be cleaned.

My D200 is over 5 years old and although I've been careful to not get dust inside, I finally noticed spots on my pictures. These spots became very clear when I was shooting some jewelry with a macro extension tube. I read online that one can get rid of these spots with sensor swabs. I found some cheap alternatives available on [@], but wanted to use the best ones I could get -- all the research led me to this brand. I was reluctant to do it myself, but figured I'd give it a try. Within a minute or two, my camera was like new.

Took my Maxxum 7D to a photo shop to have the sensor cleaned. Was told that because the camera was no longer in production, the work couldn't be done. (And a $90 charge if it could.) Bought these from my favorite retailer and had a clean sensor 10 minutes after I got them. Easy to follow instructions and very efficient at removing welded dust.

It used to take me twenty minutes a shot to clone all of the dirt out of my bright white jewelry photography studio shots. I finally decided that I had wasted enough time and bought this four-pack of #2 Sensor Swabs. Fully expecting it to be a tough process that would require me to use all four swabs to do a good job, I was completely surprised when after only one swab my sensor was perfectly clean, even all the way into all four corners. I would recommend this product to any person alive with a D-SLR - it worked that well for me.

I found the link provided on the packaging helpful to review the actual video procedure on how to clean the sensor.

Two of the swaps were totally dry. The other two swaps were wet, but they do not clean the image sensor. The swaps just move some of the dust to the edge of the sensor.

I needed to clean the sensor on my D50. I had used a mild soap to clean a fine watercolor painting brush before using the brush to dust off the sensor - oops!!! It left an oily residue. This product did the trick. How ever the first one I opened was dry - so much for being premoistened. It says its for the for the D50 but it seemed tight (too wide) to me. It did the job though.

I got this to clean off my dirty sensor. i was worried at first about how fast the fluid would evaporate but i guess they soaked the product in enough so that the cleaning agent lasted quite a long time. i just felt that for the price you pay, you get very little. but cleaning doesn't happen that often for me so this purchase doesn't hurt my wallet so much.

Swab size matches the cameras' image sensor making cleaning a breeze.

It worked exactly as I thought it would. I was able to clean my sensor although I had to use a few wipes. The first one dried out before I was done cleaning. I ended up needing to use two.

It works, but I think it is best not to press as hard as they say to and wait just a minute or so before using after opening.

Super clean fluids dry with no streaks and takes away any dust that can't be blown off.

Does exactly what they say it does.
