| Pros: | Large enough to be effective | | Cons: | | |
Over the years I bought the regular size rocket blower... it is nice, but this extra large model does a better job in every respect. More blow, more capacity, this goes where the regular size wheezes and gives up. I use this to clean anything that requires air -- film for scanning, dust from a camera, whatnot. I say go for the largest blower you can!

| Pros: | really blows a nice little gust of air | | Cons: | kind of big and awkward | |
This is an excellent tool to keep with your camera. I've used it to clean dust off a sensor and had surprisingly good results.
It's also great for blowing dust off your lens and/or filter. Anything that keeps me from touching the lens is a good thing!
Can't imagine anyone being disappointed with this.

Does exactly what you expect, for a fair gust of wind. 
Works well for blowing out crumbs on laptops and computer keyboards too.  | |

A fantastic and indespensable addition to the DSLR kit. I have not had anything on my sensor yet, which this little thing could not blast off. To be honest, when it was advised to me, I was skeptical, but it really does the job. All DSLRs should come with one.

| Pros: | Works like a charm, no risk of chemicals | | Cons: | None | |
I read the cautions against bottle air because of the chemicals that they can contain that can contaminate the interior of the camera and ruin it. So, I tried a bulb blower I had around to get a fiber off the sensor, no luck  Searched here for a solution and the Giottos AA1900 Rocket Air Blaster Large (Black) kept coming up. It got the fiber off the sensor where the automatic dust shake and the bulb blower had failed saving me $40 for a cleaning (or the stress of trying to touch the sensor myself to clean it). Excellent product.

| Pros: | pushes a ton of air | | Cons: | this is a home blower, not a field blower (not sure if this is a con - just something to be aware of) | |
Great product that works extremely well. I've had it for two years and it's never failed me.
