Comments about Photographic Solutions Digital Survival Kit with Type 2 Sensor Swabs:
I used this product to clean the sensor on my Sony A350. I had it "professionally" cleaned once and they weren't able to get rid of all the spots. Although it took two swabs, this product got rid of everything, leaving the sensor spotless, and cost far less than taking the camera to a repair shop. I also used the Eclipse solution with the type 3 swabs to clean the sensor on my Sony A850. Once again, it did the job.

Comments about Photographic Solutions Digital Survival Kit with Type 2 Sensor Swabs:
I noticed some flecks in my pictures, and sure enough, they were caused by my sensor getting dirty somehow.
This kit was easy to use (there was a helpful link to a video included in the kit which provided instructions), and I'd recommend it. I'm not an expert photographer but I'm comfortable removing lenses and using the "sensor clean" feature of my camera to expose the mirror inside.
The only reason I didn't give 5 stars is that the printed instructions with the kit could have been better -- the online ones are much clearer.

Comments about Photographic Solutions Digital Survival Kit with Type 2 Sensor Swabs:
This was a little life-saver for me.
I normally have a box of swabs and the solution at home, but I found myself on the road with a horribly dirty sensor.
I got this kit for not even half the price of purchasing a box of swabs and it had everything I could have ever thought about needing to clean the sensor on my canon 30d.
The nice thing about it is that it is compact so it fits in one of the pouches of my camera bag, so if I'm ever out on location and need to clean, I can just pop it out and get to business.

Well... ive tried several cleaners and so far this is the only product that works for me. Others just make empty promises.
Not for the faint heart tho...

If you need a cleaning set, you will like it. But the cloths are not so perfect. You need also a 'photo rocket rubber bellow' :-) ...if you know what I mean...

Comments about Photographic Solutions Digital Survival Kit with Type 2 Sensor Swabs:
I took my Canon 30D out to take snow pictures few days ago; unfortunately, moisture went inside my camera and stuck on sensor. I can even see around 200 spots @f/11.
Then I went ahead, and tried Eclipse and Sensor Swabs. After using 4 swabs*, my sensor is cleaned; now I only see 3 spots @f/29.
*I wasted first 3 swabs because I didn't know how to use them properly.
