The medium size was just perfect. Not too big & not too small.It provides an adequate blast of air per pump. (though I imagine the larger sized one can blast harder)I use the medium Rocket Air Blower to blow away dust from my camera's sensor.When doing so, just make sure to point the camera downwards so the dislodged particles don't settle back into the camera.For added stability, you can mount the camera to a tripod that points downwards before you start cleaning. (that way both hands are free)Another good thing is the stability of the red pointing nozzle. It doesn't wobble wildly everytime you pump. Though there can still be some movement, proper handholding of the pump using even pressure pretty much guarantees the nozzle stays aimed where you want it to.At just [$] bucks, this is a great buy.

I use this to clean dust off the sensor of my Canon 5D. I purchased the medium size on the recommendation of a customer review based on its
convenient size for a camera bag. The blower's design is fine but the medium doesn't generate a powerful enough air stream. I imagine
the large would do the job better and couldn't possibly take up that much more room in a camera bag!

Produce's a massive volume of air with each squeeze and refills very quickly. I would say this is the best hand operated blower on the market today.

I can't believe that I didn't get this piece of kit sooner. The Medium size is perfect for people with large hands like myself. It works great on my MFT lenses. It occupies a space in my camera backpack about the size of a medium zoom lens.

I provides a nice blast of air. It has a valve so it does not inhale and exhale the air and dust. It nice that it stands up and does not roll off the bench. I keep the smaller version in my camera bag.

Excellent quality, gives very strong bursts of air for such a small product. Love the tabs on the bottom that not only let you set it on a flat surface and keep it upright, but also prevents dust from blowing in. This little thing saved me from spending much more on a full sensor cleaning.

I use this product for cleaning camera gear, binoculars, and spotting scopes in the field. It works great for blowing grit and dust off of lenses and binocular eyepieces. It fits quite nicely into a daypack or camera bag and has a filter to keep the blower from sucking dust into the body of the blower. Over all a must have for anyone who uses cameras of other optical gear in windy or dusty environments.

Another simple piece of equipment I had been meaning to purchase for a long time. The free shipping and reasonable price made it a great add on when I was ordering a tripod. It does a good job of blowing off pesky dust and specks. I also use it to give my censor a cleaning every now and then. I think it would be sweet if this thing came with a little bag or fitted case.

If you squeeze hard (too hard I guess), air leaks out the back.I like being able to lightly blow dust off the lens without worrying about rubbing something on the glass, potentially scratching it.
