Doing this kind of sensor cleaning is not very hard nor very easy. If you follow the instructions as is, you will get poor results. Understanding the process helps in knowing how to tweak the process and that involves using less fluid and wiping several times with the dry swab.When I first tried this as per the instructions, a layer of cleaning fluid was left on the sensor, which was noticeable in my images. I then repeated the process but used only one drop on the swab.When I went to the second step with a dry swab, I just didn’t swipe across twice as the instructions say, I kept going until all the cleaning fluid was wiped away and the surface of the sensor was clean. Just like what you would do when cleaning a window, you keep passing with you towel until the glass is clean, determining this visually. It was almost like I was polishing the sensor, very gently.Now, I know many will say that this is harmful to the sensor. Actually, it is not the sensor you are cleaning, there are layers of filters placed over the sensor. You might argue that you can damage these also but if you are careful this does not happen, at least in my experience. In my case it is a full sensor Nikon sensor and I think they anticipate this and made sure the upper most layer of the filter array is tough enough to withstand this slight rubbing with the dry swab.So, this brand of cleaning sensor worked good for me after modifying the technique. The cleaning fluid formula could probably be improved as to not leave any residue and I am not sure if other brands have achieved this, all you do is try them or read reviews to determine this. K&F Concepts is a good brand but because of this problem with the cleaning fluid I had to give them four stars instead of five.Of course, if you are going to take my advice then you must understand that there are variances of technique and you might not get the results I got. If you are not willing to try this then your only other alternative is to have the camera sent out to have the sensor professional cleaned.

Had dust on the sensor and needed a way to remove it. These are a great option and inexpensive. I cleaned the sensor following the instructions once and rechecked for dust on the sensor. I did still have more spots on the sensor after cleaning it so I used a second cleaner stick and cleaned it again. After testing a second time all the spots I could see were gone. The camera is functioning great and the clarity is like new again.
I was very surprised by this. It is high quality, you get many swabs and lots of solution. It's very easy to use, and cleans very quickly and very well. Pretty valuable for the money and worth every penny compared to trying to clean manually (do not)
Used this to clean my full frame sensor but felt a visible residue on the sensor along with "streaking".Does not seems to have any noticeable effect on the image quality.
I was so nervous to clean my camera sensor for the first time, but this kit made the process incredibly easy and stress-free. The swabs are perfectly sized for the M4/3 sensor, and the cleaning liquid works wonders. I had a few stubborn dust spots and even a small oil smudge that wouldn't budge with a blower, but a single pass with one of these swabs and a couple drops of cleaner left my sensor looking brand new. The fact that it comes with 10 individually sealed swabs and a squeeze bottle of cleaner is a huge bonus. It’s a fantastic value and has become an essential part of my camera maintenance kit.
This worked for me. Your results may vary:First, make sure you are in a stable aired environment, not windy or dusty, preferably indoors, without any fans on. Your sensor should be clear of any dust or debris; use a blower on it.Open the cleaner fluid bottle first as it is sealed. Take out 2 swabs. On the first swab, use 2 drops in the front edge of the swab, evenly distributed, make sure to wet corner to corner.Open your camera's sensor, and make sure you have a light source pointed on the inside so you clearly see what you'redoing. With the wet swab, gently and firmly swipe from one end of sensor to the other, in one direction (up to down; left to right; doesn't matter but dont switch it up). Do this a few times. Then with the second dry swab, do the same thing, and try to polish off the streaks left behind by the liquid. Then give a few good blows on it (with a blower, not your breath), and voilà! You're done!A few notes:When using the swab, you want to press firmly, but not hard, as you may damage the sensor.If there are any hard debris on the sensor, like dust or sand, no matter how small, you risk scratching the sensor when swabbing it. Use a blower and make extra certain there are no visible debris on the sensor.If your sensor uses IBIS, it will not be stationary, and will wobble around as you try and swab it.This method was taught to me by a friend, who has been cleaning his own many cameras, over the years, so I was confident when using it. But as always, please use common sense.Excellent product!12mm was too small for my m4/3 sensor, but got the job done regardless.

I noticed dust spots on my photos after a recent outta that I had to remove. Not wanting to do this again I found the K&F sensor cleaning kit. It was easy to use and worked great. A few test shots in the backyard confirmed they were gone.The kit came with everything needed. This isn't a difficult task, take your time.Recommended
Simple product but effective. enough cleaning solution per swab, never left a streak or stains on sensors.
This K&F Concept kit does a great job when cleaning a full-frame sensor. For anyone saying it leaves streaks, the trick is simple, you need to use another swab after the first pass to make sure all the liquid is cleared off. If you do it properly, the sensor looks as good as new. Having 10 swabs and the cleaner included makes it a solid value.
