Good quality pumps and brushes. This is a great deal when others sell just the pencil brush for the same price. Works well.

I am doing a large project - using a scanner to convert 30 year old slides to images. I started with the idea that this was going to be easy. But the slides have dust and even larger specks sitting on them. I have had to clean every slide before scanning. That's where this kit comes into play. Unfortunately, blowing the dust off with the bulb does not do much good. I have had to use the brush on every single slide - then blew the dust off. My experience is that slides are pretty strong - the brush doesn't hurt them at all. This is not a tutorial on how to clean the slides. I am a complete novice on the best way to clean the slides, but I am sure this kit has to tools you need.

For the price, this kit contains items that I'll have another set to throw in my bag and always have on hand. The small rocket type blower is the star of the show. It is just right for on the go size and power. Much more portable than the one i use in my office, while still prividing a good blast. The mini brush blower seems ok for stubborn particles. It will definitely get some use. I do like that the brush is removable. Don't expect a lot of air from it, just small pops. Now, as for the pen brush, I enjoy its portability but here is where I will use caution. It's brush bristle is pretty firm and while not abrasive, it's not real soft. I can't speak much for the pad as I don't trust those to not scratch anyway and won't use it much. I can say it's double sided and the attachment is nicely flexible. I'd buy another set of these for my intended use.

Good quality,,very effective, good value,thank you

I've been digitizing old negatives, slides and 8mm movies from the 1940s thru about 2010. Much of the original media has been stored in old shoe boxes for decades, and were often very dusty. It's possible to edit out dust and other flaws in a photo editor, but it can be time consuming and frustrating. So it's best to clean your media before scanning it. These tools make it easy to remove dust from film & slides, saving you time later. Recommended.

The tip of the pen began to detach from the pen part and left the glue all over the front element of my lens. This was literally the opposite of what I needed and now I need a nice herbal tea to calm me down from my frustration.

For the price, you can't really pass this up. However, when you get the brushes in, throw the retractable one in the garbage. The felt pads on the retractable brush has an adhesive that can get on your lens and really make for a bad situation while out in the field. It isn't permanent, but could set up a situation where a lens is damaged by trying to remove that adhesive that rubs off. Otherwise, the rocket blower is super nice and the lens brush blower is great. Again, throw the retractable in the can when this package comes in. 3/5 for the potential risk taken when using the retractable.
