Title: SensorKlear Cleaning Pen
Post by: DarkPenguin on July 28, 2006, 12:23:00 am

Anyone tried this thing?

It looks pretty interesting and I've heard of people using lens pens to clean sensors so it sounds reasonable.

Do some research adn you probably will not want that. I use the solution and pecpad method, which gives me a clean sensor every time. Sometimes you just need  asolution to get off welded dirt. Plus, I don't want anything moving around on my sensor that could be moving abrasive dust around on it also. I shoot mine with a large rocket blower several times, and then swipe it with the solution and pec pads. But do the research and see what you want.

I've done some research and haven't seen a problem with the concept.  People have been using the lens pen technique for a while now.  (The trick, apparently, is to make sure there is no debris in the pad when you start.)  So I'm looking for testimonials from users of the product.

You might be interested in [a href=\"http://luminous-landscape.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=10331]this discussion[/url], scroll down to Boku's posts, be sure to read them all. I guess the SensorKlear is simple a conventional LensPen which is "prepared" to remove graphite particules?

Simlar to dwdallam I reuse a digipad with a clean PecPad and Eclipse. Works fine. I would not touch the sensor pen as the dirt is not removed but stays on the tip. YMMV. Leif
