Altura Photo Altura Photo Professional Camera Cleaning Kit

Good quality. I have two Canon full-frame bodies, six lenses, and a tele-extender. When I complete one cleaning of all items, I will have to order additional lens paper and sensor swabs.

This kit worked wonderfully. Just make sure you get the right size swab for your sensor size! Instructions were not included with the package, but they are pictured here in the product listing so it’s not hard to find.

My sensor was so shamefully grimy that I thought it needed professional help. As a last ditch effort, I tried this kit. It took a few of attempts and a healthy dose of patience, but now my camera is as pristine as when it was new and there’s no more sensor dust in my pictures.

I ended up using 3 wet swabs (2 sprays of cleaner on each) to soften and pick up dirt, and 2 dry swabs to wipe up excess liquid residue. The cleaning solution and tissue sheets are awesome for cleaning both camera lenses and my eyeglasses. I only wish this kit came with more swabs. I guess I’ll need to find more swabs separately for future cleanings, but this kit was definitely worth it as is.

We use this to for our routine cleaning, easy to use, does the job .

This kit is great. I have an 8” Celestron telescope with a big old corrector lens that’s exposed to outside air. Thus it needs periodic cleaning. I also have bunch of 1.5” eyepieces and filters that need to be crystal clear. This cleaning kit exceeded my expectations for cleaning these highly sensitive, chemically coated optics.

The micro-fiber cloths are very high-quality, and this is of critical importance. One is a bit smaller and thinner, good for the small 1.5” eyepieces and filters, the other is bigger and beefier, perfect for the 8” lens. No micro-scratches, and it removes smudges with ease.

The horse-hair brushes are great (one bigger, one smaller and retractable in a pen which has small sponges on the other side). The brush is super soft yet dense, effective in removing small hairs and dust particles.

The hand-squeeze air blower is good-sized, fills up my relatively large palm. It moves lots of air at high velocity, which is a critical first step in cleaning, and also must be done periodically in the field while viewing if it’s windy, dusty, or there’s smoke/pollen in the air. It does the job very well, you can really get air moving fast with this thing.

The smudge pen/sponge deal is good for those hard-to-clear smudges, and having two different shaped heads is a great bonus. The triangular head gets into hard-to-reach corners nicely.

The cleaning solution is also great, leaves no streaks or residue, doesn’t evaporate too fast which can leave streaks/spots, and oils/smudges don’t stand a chance.

I can say with confidence this little kit is perfect for touch-up cleaning and maintenance of astronomy equipment, and you won’t find more sensitive and demanding optical equipment than that. 5 stars all around, would recommend to anyone for cleaning telescopes, cameras, or other highly sensitive optical systems.

Llego antes de los esperado. Buen producto.

I’ll be honest. I had my doubts while purchasing this product. I didn’t know if this was a brand I could trust, but I thought I might as well try it out because of the price.

I’m glad I did. This product is actually wonderful! I was actually waiting for an email from amazon so I can write a review on it! You get all the things you need to keep your camera clean at an affordable price! The microfibre cloths work really well, the swabs are great, the fluid is nice (although I haven’t used it on my sensor, but on my lenses), and the case is absolutely amazing. The case really helps keep everything organized and is convenient for travel because it’s sturdy and compact.

The reason why I bought this kit was because my sensor was soooo dirty – it had many dust specks on it (refer to the pics attached). To clean my sensor I did the following:
1. Use the blower while tilting the camera
2. Use 1 swab to clean dust particles that wouldn’t budge
While doing this, I would regularly check my progress to see if there was improvement. And that’s it! I didn’t even need to use the fluid.
I was worried I would damage my sensor but couldn’t afford ‘professional’ cleaning. Honestly, if you’re also worried – don’t be. It’s reaaaally simple and easy. Also, this product will also last you a while if you don’t like in a very dusty area because the particles normally don’t build up very fast, so you may not even need it much.

I’m honestly sooo glad I bought this kit. 🙂
I hope this review helps.
