All out sensor cleaning and Giotto's are very different concepts. Until this mishap occured, I never needed to wipe any of my sensors. I am not exactly sure how you guys manage to get your sensors so dirty............

Rocket blowers are for routine maintenance, swiping is when it has become an absolute mess.

I still recommend the Giotto's, just take all precautions, if it happened to me, it can happen to you.

Persian, Maybe I missed reading something, but just how did this happen with your Rocket? I've never had any condenstion (or even thought about it) in mine.

Pulled it out of the bag, blew it and there was moisture in it. It spit a liquid out on the first hard sqeeze.

I don't get why it has left an ugly smudge on the sensor, but it did. Nothing out of the ordinary in terms of how I handle the thing.
