The cleaning wand does not work at all. What will end up happening to you is it will pick up dust and other crap and then deposit it on your sensor making things way worse than when you started. Oh yeah and that book filled with pages that are supposed to clean the wand tip does absolutely nothing. The more you use the book, the most dust the tip will just pick up off of it. The only place the wand seems to deposit anything is only on your sensor. I seriously have no idea how this thing has any positive reviews. I'm gonna be trying VSGO swabs to clean up the mess this thing made. Absolutely freaking awful product.

Long ago I tried cleaning my sensor with the liquid-type cleaner and it couldn't get the sensor totally clean of stubborn particles. Now it is clean! I can't see any spots in test shots.Pressing lightly got most of the stuff off. I had to press slightly firm to get the remaining particles off. I've noticed no damage or strange behavior afterward.Combine this with a rocket blower for quick cleaning and you're golden.

Don't bother with swabs which can drag damaging dust across your sensor. Or with fluids that leave residue traces everywhere. This device works beautifully for removing [stuck] dust or oils from your sensor and will not leave a trace. Pentax knocked it out of the park with this.

Sûrement un des meilleurs systèmes de nettoyage de capteur, l’effet collant crée un effet sonore sur le capteur assez perturbant mais sans risque .il faut bien nettoyer la tête à chaque fois , le résultat est vraiment très efficace

This was my first try at cleaning my sensor. It collected enough dust after a few years of use that I was noticing the spots in editing. This just did an OK job for me, since it removed some of the dust. By comparison, I removed more dust with a sensor brush, even though the articles I read liked this better.I eventually did a wet clean which was easier than I expected and it got the sensor as good as new.

This product works and it took me two attempts with this product. Be organized, make sure you have your sticky paper ready and know how to use it. Make sure the plastic cap is opened on the tool, so you are completely ready to start cleaning. I was happy with the results. I had wet cleaned this sensor prior to this and used a dozen swabs during two attempts. It was a filthy sensor; I purchased the camera used.

Tried the product, worked as expected, better than some low quality sensor swipes, recommended product!

The Sensor Stick is easy to use and comes with good instructions.It worked to remove all the nasty dust the first time I used it.I was tempted to try a liquid cleaner, but so happy I didn't. It left a residue on the practice surface I tried first. Dodged a bullet on that one.Hope this helps...the Stick is not difficult.

Extremely easy to use. Did a great job on my sensor. It's worth the money for the great job.

easy, quick, efficient. gets the job done extremely well. worth every penny. highly recommended. thank you, japan.

I saw there aren’t many reviews for the Pentax Sensor Cleaning Kit. So, I thought I’d do one.I recently purchased a Leica M Typ 240 off of eBay. It looked like new and it worked without issue when shooting wide open indoors but as soon as I took it outside and stopped it down, there was dust and hair all over the image sensor. My heart sank since a Leica is not exactly a cheap purchase.I used the bulb method and cleaned most of the dust and hair out bit there were 7 pieces of stubborn dust on the sensor I couldn’t get off no matter how hard I tried. So, after some online research, I purchased this cleaning kit.I was a little intimidated at first because I was always under the impression that you should never place anything on your image sensor but armed with knowledge and carefully following the instructions provided, I dove in. After using this, I can say my sensor is completely clean and undamaged. The image sensor is actually more durable than I thought. The biggest thing is done press down too hard and don’t drag the cleaning tool across your sensor. As long as you do that, it’s a pretty painless process. I’m very happy with the purchase and my new to me Leica M is perfect.

Habe den Sensor meiner Pentax K-30 vorher bereits einige Male beim ortsansässigen Fotografenmeister reinigen lassen; dies kostete pro Reinigung an die 30 Euro.- Daher schaute ich mich nach einer Alternative um und bestellte mir das Pentax Sensor-Cleaning-Kit.Das Kit habe ich seitdem mehrmals benutzt, und ich bin mit dem Ergebnis vollauf zufrieden.Im Netz findet man diverse Videos, in denen die Handhabung ausführlich gezeigt wird.Meine individuelle Vorgehensweise ist wie folgt:-Einen Raum möglichst ohne Teppiche und mit einer leicht zu reinigenden Arbeitsplatte (bei mir: die Küche) durch Staubsaugen vorbereiten-Akku der Kamera sollte voll geladen sein!-Möglichst staub- und fusselfreie Kleidung anziehen (Arbeitskittel o.ä.)-DSLR mit Pinsel und Blasebalg äußerlich reinigen-Objektiv abnehmen, und Kamera mit einem speziellen Foto-Blasebalg (Giottos o.ä.) zunächst innen gründlich auspusten-Ein Blatt des Abstreifblockes abtrennen, und die durchsichtige Schutzfolie vorsichtig abziehen (dabei möglichst keine Fingerabdrücke auf das Blatt gelangen lassen). Pro Reinigung benutze ich ein Blatt von dem Abstreifblock; auch wenn dies dabei nicht ganz ausgenutzt wird.-Das Blatt entsorge ich danach, weil Verschmutzungen mit Staub oder Flusen während der Arbeit damit nie ganz auszuschliessen sind.-Kamera einschalten und Spiegel lt. Bedienanleitung elektrisch nach oben klappen-Schutzkappe vom Gel-Stick lösen; Achtung: den Klebekopf des Gel-Sticks an keiner Seite mit den Fingern berühren!-Gel-Stick zuerst auf das Abstreifblatt drücken, um Reste von Schmutz davon zu entfernen-Gel-Stick nun abwechslend mit leichtem Druck auf den Sensor, und anschließend auf das Abstreifblatt drücken (eine benutzte Stelle auf dem Abstreifblatt nicht zweimal verwenden), solange, bis die gesamte Sensorfläche mit dem Stift bearbeitet ist.-DSLR-Spiegel lt. Anleitung herunterklappen und Objektiv wieder anbringen-Ein Probefoto einer z.B. weißen Fläche (Fotokarton o.ä.; oder draußen den wolkenlosen Himmel aufnehmen) mit unscharfem Focus und ca. Blende 16 machen; Das Foto am besten auf den PC laden und die Fläche dann auf Staubflecken überprüfen-Bei Bedarf die Reinigung noch einmal wiederholen (mehr als eine Wiederholung war bei mir noch nicht nötig) - danach sollte der Sensor fleckenfrei sein.Fazit: Man bekommt für derzeit 39 Euro ein Reinigungsset, mit dem man etliche Male seinen Kamera-Sensor reinigen kann; trotz des zunächst rein materialmäßig hohen Preises kann man so sehr viel Geld sparen im Vergleich zur gleichen Anzahl Reinigungen beim Fotografen.Was mir am Pentax-Sensor-Reinigungsset nicht so gefällt:-Es wäre schön, wenn man eine Metalldose für den Gel-Stift und den Abstreifblock dazulegen würde (wie beim Konkurrenzprodukt "Eyelead"-Leider sind Gel-Stift und Abstreifblock nur im Set und nicht einzeln zu bekommen; dies ist beim "Eyelead" ebenfalls besser gelöst.Unterm Strich zählt für mich jedoch die Reinigungsleistung, und deshalb bekommt das Produkt von mir 5 Sterne.

Se volete è l' uovo di colombo: un tampone appiccicoso di gomma che 'acchiappa' polvere e oggetti estranei e li rimuove dalla superficie del sensore o del vetrino di messa a fuoco e che si pulisce trasferendo i corpi estranei su un foglietto di carta moschicida..... L' oggetto seppur semplice e fatto con intelligenza ed ha le superfici studiate per raggiungere gli angoli del sensore o la superficie ortogonale del vetrino . Avvertenze: a mio avviso è più uno strumento di manutenzione regolare che il modo per pulire un sensore con due dita di spazzatura.... Per quello ci va una pulizia con liquido detergente o un tagliando presso un centro di assistenza.L' ho utilizzato sulla Pentax 645D e sulla Canon 5D III che avevano qualche macchia e peletti ultra molesti nel mirino con esito eccellente.Consigliato anche se il prezzo è apparentemente sproporzionato ma a questo proposito vale la pena considerare l' efficacia e la assoluta sicurezza dell' oggetto.
