http://www.amazon.com/Visible-Sensor-Clean...or+cleaning+kit

can u recommend a place where which i can find it? i stay in ipoh btw
and whether someone is selling these stuff in the forum?
please guide me God bless u all
peace

Why don't you just use ordinary cotton bud?

actually he's my brother asking me to buy it for him..im not so professional n no idea abt cameras' parts so i dont understand much why he wants this
but he said he can clean better than service centers or something like that

You joking right?
The cotton bud's rough surface would damage the sensor and leave stain on it easily.

mingyuyu<<thanks for answering him i hv no idea what u photographers talking abt hahah
any idea where to buy it online locally?

I am sure there are camera shops in Ipoh that can provie.. Kuantan is much smaller and I have no problems getting them. They will be able to recommend you some fair products that will do the job including the stuff you mention from Amazon.

The type of cleaners you will require is very much dependent on how big a job that is undertaken.

Basic stuff like blowers and soft brush are elementary requirement.

Next come the compress air duster that will cost you a bit more >RM30

A good microfiber cloth is a must on top of everything.. it is best you consider this a throw away cloth especially if you intend to clean very expensive lens. IE you need an unscrupulously clean cloth or your lens will get micro scratch when you clean.

Some people use a lens pen..

For cleaning the sensor - that is a different ball game. Not for the faint heated. Better know what you are doing then risk what you have..

BTW - if your BROTHER seem to know better , he should move his aXX and get the stuff himself! IT is only logical, then sending you on a cat and mouse hunt ???

and finally, it is even safe to order for Aliexpress! it is a matter of how well your local post office control its delivery.. In Kuantan, I give the postal service here 100% for delivery.. compared to Kepong, KL.
