Easily replaces most uses of canned air June 13, 2007 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
After reading of the environmental problems posed by canned air, I sought out a replacement. The Giotto Rocket Air Blaster easily replaces most of my uses for canned air. It easily blasts debris from keyboards and PC fans and insides. I've used it to remove dust from slides, negatives and lenses. It really works and puts a good stream of air right where it's needed and long enough (extra-large bulb) to do the trick. About the only thing this cannot do, which can be done with canned air (believe it or not) is dent removal, from automobile bodies.
It's okay June 9, 2007 4 out of 4 found this review helpful
Does not have the air power I thought I'd get from device. Size fits in a medium size gear bag with your other equipment. Works for most dust on your lens and camera body, but not 100%.
HUGE, but a huge help May 30, 2007 17 out of 17 found this review helpful
I bought this product after finding multiple spots on my photos.
The best way to test if you have dust on your camera's sensor is to set your f-value very high such as f-22 and take picture of the sky or a bright piece of paper. Dust usually only appears in your photos at smaller apertures. You should be able to see most blotches clearly if you do the test right.
Anyway, this thing did the job perfectly. I know how sensitive camera sensors are, and am a little hesitant about using the "wet" method. And besides, this is much cheaper. All you do is go into a dust free room (bathroom worked for me), take off your lens, set your camera to mirror lock-up mode, stick the little red tube into the lens bay, and give it a few blows. Wait about 5 seconds after each blow to allow the dust to fall out. Just make sure you do this is a room free of moisture. Then you just pop the lens back on and take another test shot.
It also works great for taking dust off your lenses, off of your camera, out of your computer keyboard, or really anything.
The only cons I can think of are that it is too big to fit in my camera bag, and that it is loud. But it is still well worth the money, and five stars.
Great product, works as advertised May 12, 2007 4 out of 4 found this review helpful
This thing puts out a surprisingly strong blast of air. It reinflates very quickly (as quick as you can squeeze and release it). The long tip allows for getting up close to recessed parts. The only fault I can find with it is that it initially had a strong rubber smell which has faded over the last couple of weeks, but that's a minor detail which does not affect it's functioning. I consider it to be worth every penny.
Handy if you have the room for it. Don't get it wet. May 6, 2007 7 out of 7 found this review helpful
This product works great. Just don't get the product wet, as the rubber starts to smell rather bad.
If my current handblower broke, I wouldn't buy another.
