Hi
I am thinking of cleaning my sensors as they are getting very dirty.
I've used Ellipse products in the past but wasn't 100% happy.
I was looking at Visible Dust products and was wondering what peoples experiences are
a) Artic Butterfly 724 - This looks great on paper - is it effective in real life
b) Quasar Loupe - This is quite expensive - is it worth the money - well built etc. You can buy cheap ones from EBAY
c) Swabs and Liquids. There is a fair bit of choice her which is confusing. I think it's the Green sticks I'd use but I'm not sure whether Smear Away or one of the other liquids is best to use. Are the liquids effective and do they evaporate off cleanly. I could be imagining but I think banding is more of an issue at wide aperatures since I clean the sensor previously
d) Sensor Brush - how do you clean them?
e) Anyone use a "Flexodome" - think this is designed to stop you touching the sensor - also expensive
f) Anyone use a "Dust Snapper"
Any advice would be gratefully accepted.
