Professional Camera Sensor Cleaning Kit Authentic Made in Germany

The printed user instructions are thorough and provide detail that I did not see online. It even specifies the dilution of alcohol for cleaning the gel swab, not surprising for a product from Germany.When used on a full frame Nikon D750 the result was excellent. Removal of dust and spots, leaving no residue on the sensor. It's a welcome alternative to a sensor brush, something that I'd use before resorting to sensor swabs and a wet cleaning solution.

Been using this solution for a number of years ow and it seems to work well. Be very careful pressing down on the camera sensor and all should be great. Recommended.

The gel block had dust and debris stuck to it out of the box (which is surprising for a dust removal tool). Never mind—after being cleaned before use—it removed all but one dust spot on my camera sensor. Easy to use and effective.

i was worried about buying this but it worked like a charm, follow instructions and never ever let it sit for for an extended period on the sensor, just real quik dabs is all thats needed.

So far I have to say I'm disappointed. I ordered this as the German version. It came from China (with a Chinese postcard...I suspect that 'tourism' addition puts them in a different tariff category or something) Nevertheless, it looks authentic as a German product. I followed the instructions to the letter....Opened in a calm room, began by pressing against the peeled off (yet not overly sticky) sheet a couple of times to preclean the dabber. Then carefully pressed lightly in the center of the sensor where I had a stubborn speck. It picked that up perfectly....AND left a smear on the sensor that matched the rectangle shape. I pressed onto the paper again, actually saw the speck on the paper and applied the stick to the sensor again...just to the right and it left even more junk on the sensor.... all in straight lines. I tried tapping like i would with rubber cement ball to remove rubber cement from an area to see if it would pick up its own residue and got some of it but I still have sticky crap on the sensor. Not happy at the moment... especially if this is not the 'real' product and Amazon sold it anyway. Sigh.

This product is fantastic at safely cleaning the optics of camera without damaging their surfaces or coating.

Conceptually, and bolstered by the favorable reviews, I thought this product sounded like a safe, viable approach to cleaning the dust from the sensor glass of my Nikon D850. Per the usage instructions, I did first clean the gel with the provided viscous paper to help ensure it was in prime condition for use, without any contaminants from product manufacture and packaging. Initially touching it very lightly to the glass, wanting to be as careful as possible, it failed to remove dust or spots presumed to be dust. Ditto for the 2nd application after first cleaning it again on the viscous paper before another use. For the 3rd effort, I applied a bit more pressure but still what I'd consider more gentle than seemed implied by the instructions or what I've seen others say, but even with that light touch, I saw residue left behind on the glass that came from the gel cube itself. With patient effort, I was able to remove the bulk of it with concern about continuing to use the Eyelead stick but having no alternatives. In the end however, I didn't want to get too aggressive and stopped, then ordered some Eclipse solution and sensor swabs. After they arrived, I was able to clean the remaining Eyelead gel residue from the sensor glass but also left a few new spots behind, overall nothing gained but frustration. I'll add too that I found the size of the gel cube seemed large insofar as making it difficult to use near the inside corners and edges, so I was left just assuming that if I positioned the stick carefully near the edge of the glass, that it was infact getting to those spots. Again though, I ultimately just found it more difficult to use than a sensor swab with Eclipse solution. That all said, rather than return this rather pricey product, I chose to keep it as another tool in the toolbox, although it will not be my first "go to" item for sensor glass dust removal or any similar task.

You are literally taking a sticky square gummy thing and sticking it to your camera's sensor. When you pull it away, you get quite a little resistance before it comes loose. It also wont work with a smudge on the sensor of any kind.However, for what it is, it works great. But here is what you do. Lock up the mirror, and use a cotton sensor cleaner with a drop of liquid to thoroughly clean the sensor. In the process, you will hit the edges around the housing, and a few little specs of crud will fall into the camera. THEN use the Eyelead, going in a row pattern, and do the sticky clean, like cleaning lint off of cloth with tape. You will have a spotless sensor.
