VSGO DDR16 DSLR or SLR Camera APS-C Sensor Cleaning Kit (12 X 16mm Sensor Cleaning Swabs + 15ml Sensor Cleaner)

Had a smudge of something on the sensor of my Sony a6000. I tried using alcohol and a cotton swab to remove it but it only smeared it. This is where this product came in. I got the 12-pack swab with the cleaner fluid. I followed the instructions and put only a few drops on the swab. One drop on each side near the edge. Its a bit hard to squeeze the bottle, so I actually did 2 mini drops on one side, and a regular bigger drop on the other. I waited a few seconds so that it wasn't soaking, and I took a pass at the smudge. GONE!...for the most part, there was what looked like a piece of dust still embedded by residual smudge residue. I flipped the swab over and took a few more passes and it was all gone. I know the instructions say to use a new swab for each pass to avoid recontaminating the sensor, or even scratching it from what you've already cleaned off and is on the swab, but I only had the small smudge, so I took that risk. My sensor is super clean now. I'm not sure what issue other people had with the cleaner, it worked perfect for me. It didn't leave a residue, didn't take forever to dry and actually dried in a couple of seconds.

I just did my first sensor cleaning and it turned out pretty good. See my before and after screenshot of LR visualize spot images. There were still a couple tiny specks, but I decided not to chance it as they won't be noticeable in my photos. I used 2 swabs total, first a dry wipe and then a wet wipe with 2 drops. No residue appeared to be left over. The only problem I had was the swabs were about 2mm to small for my APS-C sensor on a Nikon D5300, so on the return pass I lifted and swiped the bottom. This is odd because the Nikon manual says I have a 15.6mm CMOS sensor and these swabs are in fact 16mm as stated. Anyway, good luck!

Who knew the sensor on my D7100 had a 3 year old built up layer of film on it like you get on the inside of your windshield. A little dab of the liquid on each corner of the cleaning pad, watch the liquid migrate and meet in the middle, then slide pad across sensor as instructed.Wow, what a difference. FYI the bottle of liquid is sealed with a plastic mini plug. Just pry up the plastic edge and it pops off.Great product, no residue, works as stated. I bought this stuff, not lucky like some folks to get a freebie to evaluate.

I have attached two photos showing a before and after (different colors as they were shot on different days, but you can clearly see the spots). I have been having to manually retouch marks on my photos for a couple of years. I used the "clean sensor" function on the camera often, but the marks were still there. Next I purchased the Rocket-air Blower form Amazon. Another good product, but I guess my marks were not just loose dust. I was going to send the camera out to be professionally cleaned, but honestly they seem to sell for a couple of hundred dollars on eBay so I figured I would try to clean myself. It took three swabs with cleaner to get all of the marks off. Now I feel like the camera is as good as new. One thing that really helped was to look at the sensor in direct sunlight. Also, remember that the camera reverses the image so if the marks are on the right side of the photos (as mine were) they are on the left side of the sensor.

I somehow managed to get some kind of liquid splash on my  Olympus E-PM2 Mirrorless Digital Camera with 14-42mm Lens (White) (Old Model)  sensor. It was wildly noticeable at smaller apertures as a dark ring in the same spot.I tried a  Lenspen LENSK1A Sensorklear Ii with Articulated Tip  but that didn't remove the evaporated liquid mark. I then tried this cleaning tool dry but it did not work. I then placed a tiny amount of liquid cleaner on to the cleaning tool and then gently applied to the sensor and within seconds the spot was gone and the liquid evaporated. Doesn't appear to have left any residue and my pictures are back to spot free perfection. No complaints!Highly recommended.

I was so scared about cleaning my APS-C (Canon) sensor. I only chose not to pay for professional service because my camera is already kind of old, and wouldn't make a financial sense to pay around 80 dollars to clean it. So I decided to give this a try.It worked perfectly. Hours before I blew the sensor with a duster spray can. Then I closed a small room for a couple of hours (AC off) to let the air dust settle. The I did as the procedure says, but ended up using 2 drops of liquid in the swab (each drop only wets half swab tip). Then did the movement as instructed (once each direction). I still noticed a few specks and used another new swab, this time dry. Boom, done. All clean and there is not a single dust spec anymore. This thing work, people. Buy it if you need.

Had two mirrorless cameras with dust on both of their sensors. Tried the Rocket blaster - no dice. The used the The Dust Patrol sensor cleaning brush - still no dice. This stuff was stuck on. I was hesitant to mess with the sensor directly but it was going to cost $85 each to have them shipped and back from the shop (not a bad price) so I thought I'd give this a shot on at least one of them first.On both cameras, the dry pass left some dust, but the wet pass took care of every speck and blot. On one camera it took too applications of the wet pass (and no, I did not change out the swabs).Excellent product. Saved me over $150.

You can have confidence in this product as it works well and is easy to use.I purchased the APS-C sensor cleaning kit (Model DDR-16) for my Sony mirrorless camera. After watching a Youtube video from Tony Northrup on how to use the product, I worked up my courage and began. Piece of cake! It was so easy and the process removed most of the dust particles. What was left was my fault as the remaining dust particle is near the edge. Easy to clean up as the kit contains quite a few one-use swabs.

Had a really dirty sensor glass on my Sony A6000 that would not clean normally (note to self, do not try to blow dirt off the sensor with your mouth when you have just had lunch and have a bushy moustache, the crumbs get everywhere). In desperation I tried this cleaning kit and what a brilliant job it did too, a couple of careful wipes following the instructions to the letter and the glass was pristine, highly recommended.

Comprato per pulire il sensore della mia aps-c, ho usato un solo stick con 3 gocce del liquido in dotazione. Effettuati 2 passaggi totali sia in un verso che nell'altro avendo l'accortezza di rigirare lo stick. Il sensore è tornato come nuovo. Il costo lo trovo sempre eccessivo in riferimento a questo tipo di prodotto, ma tutto sommato decisamente più contenuto rispetto a altre case e, vista la qualità, lo consiglio.Lavorate il più possibile in un ambiente pulito, con finestre chiuse e la zona d'appoggio ben spolvera poi lontani dalla zona d'appoggio soffiate delicatamente all'interno della macchina con l'apposito soffietto. Sempre con il soffietto soffiate su un pennello piatto di setole sintetiche affinché si carichi elettrostaticamente e passatelo sul sensore delicatamente al fine di eliminare eventuali granelli di polvere. Una volta imbevuto lo stick con le 3 gocce di soluzione, attendete qualche secondo per far evaporare un po' il prodotto.

En una sola pasada, el sensor limpio y sin rastro. Sólo he gastado dos gotas de líquido y un bastoncillo. Mi cámara es una Nikon D7100 y tenía manchas de aceite en el sensor, nunca lo había limpiado y era la primera vez que realizaba esta operación. Miré algunos tutoriales en youtube y me puse manos a la obra. Hice una pasada en una dirección, giré el bastoncillo, y repetí la operación en la misma dirección. El resultado fue excelente, hice una pruebas y no había ni rastro de gotas ni motas de polvo.

If you own a mirrorless that leaves the sensor exposed when you remove the lens, you NEED one of these. I had for the longest time avoided making the purchase because it's so bloody expensive (in Indian currency) but recently i looked very closely on the sensor and realized how dirty it was. All smudged up. So finally had to purchase this thing. Works like a charm! Can't recommend it enough.
