I bought the delkin sensor scope last week from warehouse express.

I do change the lenses often so I pay the penalty. I have 3 x dslr bodies so as you can imagine it takes time to clean and then check etc etc.

It's amazing how it can easily show up the dirt on a sensor when viewed through the magnifier.

It's a nifty device which should save quite a bit of time when cleaning sensors.

Thanks for that. I've been considering getting one for a while.
I might just go ahead soon and get one!
 
IIRC the Delkins use a vacuum device to lift dust etc off the sensor. Remember Andy Rouse reviewing one, alongside the Invisible Dust one.
 
I used the Invisible Dust loupe and think they are great. So much better than the old days of lens off, shutter open, clean sensor, shutter closed, lens on, take picture, picture on computer, auto levels, find more dirt, swear, lens off, shutter open, clean sensor, shutter closed, lens on, take picture, picture on computer, auto levels, find more dirt, swear, lens off, shutter open, clean sensor, shutter closed, lens on, take picture, picture on computer, auto levels, find more dirt, swear, lens off, shutter open, clean sensor, shutter closed, lens on, take picture, picture on computer, auto levels, find more dirt, swear...
 
I've got the Visible Dust Sensor Loupe and it's excellent. One of the most worthwhile accessories I've bought. I can't remember precise details of the comparison between this one and the Delkin which I read before purchasing, but the Visible Dust one came out better.

It's worth going to the weblink posted by Trappe and viewing the demo clip.

Looks a handy bit of kit.

Trappe - how much did it cost you pl?

That doesn't compare the VD Sensor Loupe though. The Delkin has 4 LEDs. The VD has 6. The little vacuum cleaner looks interesting though.
