Eclipse Camera Lens Cleaner - Digital Sensor Cleaner Solution - Camera Cleaning Fluid Safe For Coated Lenses - Works With All Cameras, Binoculars, And Other Optical Products - Dropper Tip (59ml) - 2oz

This is something I've been using for years and it works well. Wet cleaning, on the other hand, should be considered a last resort when it comes to sensor contamination. br>br>I've noticed that my new cameras don't seem to attract blobs. They don't produce the same amount of dust and debris as early DSLRs did, but they do require cleaning every now and then. br>br>I always begin by cleaning the camera's sensor, which I do twice: once vertically and once horizontally (no lens, obviously). After that, I use an electrostatic brush to clean the surface.

The solution, when combined with the appropriate size "SensorSwab," was finally able to remove a spot on my sensor that no other method had been able to remove. The only issue is that the instructions state that "several drops" should be used. It took three tries with increasing amounts of solution on the swab before I was finally able to remove the spot. Finally, I soaked it in 10 or 12 drops of oil. However, a gleam or residue was left behind. The good news was that a new swab with less solution, 5-, was found to be effective. The sheen was removed with 6 drops. br>Overall, it worked when nothing else did, and I was afraid to pursue other options too aggressively.

If you're looking for the best lens cleaning agent to keep your camera, scope, or other GLASS optics clear, clean, and ready to use, Eclipse Lens Cleaner and PEC, lint-free pads are the way to go! br>br>Recommended and used by many professionals, both in repair and refurbishment, and serious photographers to keep valuable lenses, such as my Hasselblad optics, in top condition, Eclipse cleans away fog, oils, tobacco film, and other degrading elements from lenses, and allows the best of a lens to present its best results possible when used in conjunction with a protective filter. This includes darkroom lenses, which will pick up a fog of tobacco on the optics of anyone who smokes/smoked while processing film and papers. br>br>All of a sudden, a whole new world of possibilities opens up in terms of purchasing used lenses that only require a thorough cleaning to make them usable again. br>br>To use Eclipse, fold a PEC Pad in half, place it over a lens that has been blown clean of grit, sands, and other debris, and dab a few drops of Eclipse fluid on the pad. br>br>Gently wipe the lens in small circular patterns to remove years of grime, tars, and atmospheric pollution, ALWAYS remembering to wipe the lens's edge and 'drag off' the material removed in cleaning. br>br>If necessary, repeat the process with a fresh edge or corner of the PEC PAD until the lens surface is free of grime. Never clean a lens or filter with a used portion! Similarly, I recommend that you place a similarly cleaned filter over the newly renewed lens so that future cleanings for the lens are not required, reducing the need to reclean the lens and, as a result, reducing the eventual removal of lens coatings, even with the gentlest rubbing/burnishing action. br>br>USE CAUTION when using Eclipse on any PLASTIC elements of a lens, filter, or viewfinder, as Eclipse is not recommended for these optics. br>br>Eclipse and PEC PADS should be in every photographer's bag AND studio to help keep their lenses in top shape and looking as good as they can. Eclipse is the ONLY Fluid Cleaner Recommended Universally by Camera Lens Makers.

I'm not sure what's in it, but it gets the job done. br>D850 (first set, before and after) a slight streak at the bottom center right and a smudge on the top right. Some specks are missing from the center. br>D5300 (second set)Don't be alarmed by the blob on the D5300 before and after; it was caused by dust on the lens. On the D850, I used the same lens after cleaning it with a blower. br>The D5300 was simple to construct, requiring only six paddles. The D850 was more difficult to use because it streaked at the top and bottom. I used all 20 paddles before getting the final result, so it's possible the paddles aren't making flat contact. br>I'll probably clean my D850 again in about 2 years, but I can live with it for now. In any case, I usually crop around the edges. Neither is perfect, but they are far superior to what they were previously.

To be honest, it could just be 5N IPA, and I'm not sure if it's cheaper in bulk, but it worked great and left no residue. Is it therefore worthwhile to try to save a few dollars? No. It is, in my opinion, financially worthwhile. I recently disassembled a fungus-infested lens and used it, along with clean room cellulose pads and clean room microfiber cloths, to clean it. It was a great success. When used with standard wet cleaning wands, it was effective at cleaning DSLR sensors. First surface mirrors (flip mirrors in DSLR) and final cleaning of a large telescope mirror were worked on. (For the telescope mirror, degrease in the kitchen sink with DAWN, rinse with DI water, then remove any remaining water spots with this stuff by dragging a saturated lint-free cloth across the surface. ) ) For the vast majority of people, this will be enough for a lifetime.

This is an outstanding solution. I was hesitant to use a sensor cleaner because I was concerned that it would leave a residue. There was no residue, and it removed all of the sensor dust as well as a few small oil stains from a contaminated sensor brush. I used these with my Sony A9 cameras and am very pleased with the results. It comes highly recommended.
