CCD cleaning device

photopayne · Jan 25, 2003

I know I read a while back, even looked at a product page, of a CCD cleaning stick that basically had a sticky end to pull off dust specs.

1- Has anyone used this and has it worked OK? Recommended?

2- What's it called and where to get one?

Thanks. I searched all through this thread but couldn't find a mention of this method or device. I shoot with a D1x.

These are called sensor swabs which are used with Elipse ccd liquid cleaner.

Actually what your asking about is called the SpeckGrabber. It is different from the Sensor Swabs in that its a re-usable plastic stick with a sticky bluw rubber on the end of it which holds the dust. Calumet now sells them, I have never tried them but I question its quality and its ability to hold dust.
