I was always under the impression that every vacuum cleaner no matter how good sent out a little bit of dust and debris while sucking in, I could be completely wrong though maybe this is the best thing since sliced bread.

looks like it sucks in air thorough the filter, then expels it through the centre, interesting to see where they put the batteries.

They're mighty big dust bunnies!

Some great comments in that article, does someone actually think it was a great idea to clean the camera with a vacuum cleaner?

'Or I can just use my vacuum cleaner!'

'My friend used vacuum cleaner on his brand new Pentax MZ-S and sucked the shutter out. Please do not do that....'

Even if it works, $150 dollars for the unit, then $18 a time for 3 filter sheets. I'll stick to using a rocket blower.
