Re: Sensor cleaning question

We have a fellow near us who sells, demos and does a lot of lens cleaning. Comes to our club and does a bunch of cameras.

One thing I learned from him is that perhaps the swab may matter more than the fluid. He showed us some that had really scratchy surfaces, and that were't really flat. It was hard to tell, but put 'em on a glass surface or something and look close and some were bowed, which would have meant a bunch of streaking with a wet wipe. The Visible Dust ones will be good, I'm sure, but just check to see they have gotten bent. Since you only use 'em once, might save having to go through a bunch.
