Today, for the first time, I used the Copper Hills Images sensor cleaning kit - All I have to say is "wow" . I followed their cleaning steps and it cleaned my sensor of all dust "squeaky clean". I would recommend their cleaning kit/procedures to anyone without any hesitation.

Merry Christmas

Glad to hear it. I haven't had to clean the sensor on any of my cameras yet---the Giottos Rocket Blower has kept them clean enough. Still, I ordered one of the kits just in case. Out here in the desert, an 'emergency' sensor cleaning would require a drive into Los Angeles, a 6-hour round trip under normal circumstances. I figure it's better to have the kit on hand for the day when I might need it.

Hi Ivan, I ordered it direct from copper Hill Images (via the internet/paypal) and paid a total of $37.95 (one bottle of optic cleaning liquid and 100 pec pads with applicator).
