I heard a while ago Lens pen were bringing out a sensor cleaning pen, anyone seen any of these about yet. Got to be cheaper than the artic butterfly, lol.
yep thats the one, did you hear the story behind this one, apparently Canon were buying truck loads of the old lens pens and canon wouldnt say why, then lens pen found out Canon were using them to clean the sensors when they got the cameras in for services, so lens pen said ok will make one for the job, not sure if its out here yet will have to have a look.
How does it work? I had to use the old tesco bag and pen tube for the first time the other day on my new camera, something that will give a quick directable blast would be good. _________________

I have this cheeky chap for when I need a quick puff (a quick one in the ear usually gets a result), but more persistent camera dirt needs something with a bit more oomph.
I bought some 'proper' sensor cleaning brushes a while ago that you charge up with compressed air (creates a static charge to sttract dust and crap) - they're quite good. One brush is for the mirror, the other is for the CCD. Here's an example:

The branded ones cost a fortune - not sure why - I bought mine from ebay and they are extremely effective.
