5 out of 5 stars Actually Works (For Most Dust)   April 30, 2006
 24 out of 24 found this review helpful

I had originally bought another brand of blower to clean my digital camera, but after using it once I ended up introducing more dirt and/or rubber bits than I care to remember. Long story short I don't use that for my camera anymore and it took me a long time to get all of that crud out of my camera. But then I decided to give another brand a try since so many people seemed to be able to use blower bulbs without any problems. When I got my new blower my sensor was already fairly clean, but after using it it was a little cleaner. You will still sometimes have those stuck on particles (I use sterile pec pads and eclipse solution to get rid of those with pretty good results, but do this at your own risk since it voids most camera manufacturers warranties.) I also keep my blower in the original packaging to keep it as clean as possible, I guess I am a little gun shy after my first experience.


5 out of 5 stars Great Product, Use it all the time   January 28, 2006
I have owned the Giottos Rocket Air Blaster for 2 weeks now and love it. I use it for blowing dust of everything: Camera lenses, computer screens and out of computer keyboards. It is made of a nice soft material that allows it to be stored flat and out of the way. Additionally, it creates sufficient pressure to force away most dust particles and of course requires no canned air, as it works as you pump it. I'll never by a can of forced air again.


4 out of 5 stars Clever gizmo remove most but not all dust   January 22, 2005
 15 out of 20 found this review helpful

I bought this gizmo to clear the CMOS detector in my digital SLR camera. It seemed like a good alternative to using a specialized, expensive sensor wipes, and it would not invalidate the camera's warranty.

The results with my camera were good but not perfect. Many large particles of dust were blown off the detector. However, some medium-sized particles were merely pushed to the edges. Nonetheless, I really like having the air blaster just for my camera.

Aside from my camera, I have used this on a number of other devices around my home and office. It works particularly well at clearing dust out of the vents in my laptop and underneath the keys on my laptop's keyboard. However, it works poorly in clearing out the dust and grime in my desktop keyboard.

In summary, I would say that this is a good device for owners of digital SLR cameras, although it is not a perfect substitute for sensor wipes. For owners of electronic equipment in general, this is a clever device that works reasonably well at cleaning dust out of some places.



3 out of 5 stars It's good, but...   September 10, 2004

I just bought this and I thought it would blow air just as hard as the air canisters (the ones with liqiud). It is probably 3/4 the power of the cans. It'll blow off dust but not as much as the cans. Of course the cans don't blow off all the dust completely, but it has a more consistant air flow and a stronger air burst. This one needs sqeezing by your hand.
