Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Giottos AA1900 Rocket Air Blaster Large - Black
Customer Review: SUPERB! A must for all photographers!
Summary: 5 Stars
GREAT item! FORCEFUL air output! CONVENIENT! Stands on its own! DURABLE!
I use this to keep my DSLR and its lenses clean and dust free. It has been a great help in clearing the pesky dust "hairs" that can appear in your viewfinder. It also has saved my from the sensor-swabbing or servicing several times over. I put my camera into its cleaning cycle where the shutter mirror flips up exposing the sensor...and then, WHOOSH...one quick puff/burst of air and my sensor is clear enough for good pictures again! This is a must for everyone's camera bag!
Customer Review: Andrew's Review
Summary: 5 Stars
This rocket air blaster saved me money from a shop cleaning the dust off my sensor of my Canon 50D. I was able to clear most of the dust away, there is still a little left, but no big particulates though. For a good cleaning it is a little of a workout, but you have to make sure to make sure you never touch the tip or anything else on the sensor itself. Each time I try and clean it I can see more dust removed. I might try and have it cleaned at some point down the road to see how well they can actually do it but for now I don't really have a problem.Customer Review: Works fine
Summary: 5 Stars
I bought this air blaster to clean the dust that was on my camera lens. This product was inexpensive, and it did the job very well.
The natural rubber is quite soft. It also has a bit of a smell, but I think that shouldn't be a problem. I wonder if the rubber will degrade in a matter of 5 to 10 years.
I'm not sure why the nozzle needs to be so long. But I can't really complain, since it gets the job done.
I highly recommend people to carry one of these in their camera bag, because as we know, dust is everywhere!
Customer Review: Easily replaces most uses of canned air
Summary: 5 Stars
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.Customer Review: Dont wipe your lens, blow it off with a good blower!
Summary: 5 Stars
This is an extremely effective dust control device. Instead of needing brushes and other things which require physical force, the air does all the work and does not smudge lens oils like using a cloth can. This blower handles %90 of lens interference and the other %10 is when you'd need a cloth.
On a side note: This blower does NOT have an air filter in the rear air intake valve. I took it apart and checked. However, for standard cleaning and environments this is more than enough. In dusty places I'd look for a filtered unit.
