I had problems getting my sensor clean and had to use various products like alcohol and ether to remove greasy contaminants. After all of that wet cleaning and blowing there were still spec that did not want to move and this did the job!

Pour ma première utilisation j'ai eu l'efficacité que j'attendais.Lors de l'étape préalable, après utilisation de la bombe à air sur le capteur de mon Nikon D750, il me restait 2 petites tâches tenaces évidentes même à F9 et d'autres moins visibles mais présentes.J'ai donc entrepris de passer ce stylo approximativement où été situées ces traces. ça n'a pas été magique car j'ai quand même du faire plusieurs fois les étapes stylo, soufflette, loupe éclairante, photo du ciel à F22, recherche des défauts dans Lightroom. De nouveaux spots apparaissaient. Mais j'ai fini par avoir un résultat assez satisfaisant.À un moment j'ai eu une grosse trace liquide après le passage de ma bombe soufflante qui n'a pas disparu spontanément après séchage, mais en passant le stylo dans la zone tout est parti.Je n'ai jamais frotté avec le stylo, je l'ai passé délicatement sans beaucoup appuyer et manifestement ça a suffit pour chasser les petits points retors.Pour être honnête si je pousse la détection des défauts dans Lightroom je vois tout de même des traces qui correspondent à des résidus de "balayage" avec le stylo, probablement des dépôts laissés par sa tête, et ce malgré la soufflette utilisée plusieurs fois juste après.Mais le mieux étant l'ennemi du bien j'ai préféré en rester là.Pour info j'ai utilisé une loupe éclairante standard, mais il est évident que la loupe de la marque, avec une fente permettant le passage du stylo, serait d'un bien meilleur usage. Mais je la trouve beaucoup trop chère et je n'en ai pas fait l'acquisition.

Práctico y del tamaño de una pluma, no ocupa espacio en tu mochila, funciona muy bienEsta herramienta debe estar en la mochila de todo fotógrafo ya que nunca sabes cuando se puede ensuciar el sensor y resulta más común en las mirrorless que en las dslr

I wasn't crazy about trying this product on my D800E sensor, graphite and rubbing my sensor just rubbed me the wrong way. But the good reviews and the price drove me to try it. I literally have spent hundreds of dollars on sensor cleaning supplies and can't believe that the least expensive turned out to be the most useful.I've noticed with my D800E that residue left behind by sensor cleaning liquids is clearly visible using Lightroom's Visualize Spots feature, most noticeable with the slider setting at max. They're popular liquids too - Eclipse and Smear Away. It took me about 10 wet swabs at $3 each before I realized I was no longer cleaning oily dirt on the sensor, but residue left behind from the previous swab. I never noticed that on my D100 and D700, but I wasn't using Lightroom at that time either.I apprehensively tested the Sensorklear pen on 1 corner at first. Looked for graphite dust but found none. Then 2 edges, then the other 2, then the rest of the sensor. WOW! I could have cleaned with only 1 swab and used this pen to remove all of the residue. It removes it with a single swipe too, easy peasy. Won't need to buy corner swabs either, this pen is perfect for that. And it's REUSABLE:-)Since my purchase it's been inside my camera about 40 times. Each time it worked as good as the first and left no residue.My only gripe is I find it awkward getting the cleaning tip to lay flush (parallel) with the sensor, so that I'll be cleaning with the entire triangle tip and not favoring just one side of it. This could be mostly due to the camera's cramped sensor chamber, but the articulated tip does help a lot in that regard.Great product, great price. And the fact that it's reusable is icing on the cake.

El envío, como todos los de Amazon premium, perfecto: puntual, protegido y en total correspondencia con el pedido. El artículo: lo que no pensaba que existiera. No sólo me ahorró el servicio técnico sino que en menos de cinco minutos el sensor de mi a7R estaba mejor que de casa (y estaba limpiando salpicaduras).10/10

This product works very well. My D800 sensor looked like it had measles on it. There were many dust particles and some crud from a previous cleaning that did not remove everything.First, one needs to blow out the dust from the chamber using a Giottos or similar blower. Next, put the sensor up, apply the Lenspen and swab the sensor surface; then, take a reference photo at F16 or F22 so any remaining particles will be visible on the sensor. Go back, examine the photograph and, if necessary, blow the chamber out and the sensor off; finally, clean the sensor with the Lenspen again and then blow the chamber again. You must not fear that the pen/brush will harm the sensor. Repeat until the sensor is whistle clean. It may take you 3-4 times if your sensor is very cruddy.One must simply not press too hard on the pen/brush. It is very responsive and you can easily tell when you have "landed" on the sensor so pressing too hard is almost not possible. You must not think that you must be a Rembrandt to clean your sensor. Lenspen makes it easy.I was afraid that I would not be able to clean the sensor but it is shiny clean now and I could easily imagine using this after a photo-shoot in a hotel room along with the blower. After you do it a few times, you realize that the sensor cleaning fear you had was unrealistic. This device makes it easy to do the job right and quickly. You will also want to set the sensor clean on your camera automatically to clean the sensor at start-up and shut-down.Did I mention that at $10 you will not go broke on exotic twirly-whirly brushes and "secret potions" from Canada. You know who you are {Ahem: Fluttering around up in The Arctic...}.Photographers can actually afford to do the job right, quickly and easily! Good job, Lenspen!

This doesn't work quite as well as it could, but it got the spot off my sensor, and since I had it overnighted, the rest of my vacation photos were spot-free.It's *not* easy to clean the edges, no matter what they claim about the shape of the tip making it simpleDon't try to use it to clean your focusing screen while you're in there. That's not what it's for, and you'll end up with unremovable black grit in the focusing screen, like I did. D'oh!

If the general procedure detailed here (http://www.lensrentals.com/blog/2010/04/how-to-clean-a-camera-sensor) is followed, you should be able to clean your sensor without the left over dust, streaks, or scratches that other reviewers have complained about. Here is the general outline:1) If your camera has it, run the sensor clean program2) Go into cleaning mode to lock up the mirror and use a blower like this (http://www.amazon.com/Giottos-AA1900-Rocket-Blaster-Large/dp/B00017LSPI) to first attempt blowing loose dust away. Hold camera with sensor facing down while aiming blower up at sensor so that loose dust is pulled down by gravity. Really try to get rid of any dust with this step before moving on to more invasive cleaning3) If dust remains, move on to sensor pen. Place camera with sensor up and view sensor with LED head lamp for dust. At this point dust that significantly affects the sensor should probably be visible by eye or you should have a general idea where it is. Open the sensor pen and blow the tip a couple times with the rocket blower. Then in small circular movements, clean the general area of persistent dust. Take care not to touch the edges of the sensor where mechanical lubricants are located and will result in a hard to remove smears.4) At this point, there WILL be residue from the sensor pen left on the sensor. Blow the sensor a couple times with the rocket blower. Then you will need to use a silicone based tool like this (http://www.amazon.com/DustAid-Platinum-DSLR-Sensor-Cleaner/dp/B0019K8YVM) to pick up excess residue. Make sure to follow the included instructions closely.5) If these steps fail to remove your dust, move on to wet clean.
