Pros: | good airflow | Cons: | goofy looking, hard plastic outlet | | The shape of this thing just kills me. I wonder if it looks like an explosive device in an airport x-ray ?
I find that some of the dust spots I want to remove from a sensor are hard to get off unless I put the air outlet very close to the sensor. The hard plastic outlet
I have a bulb I much prefer, which I think is actually something for use with infants. It has no hard parts and produces just as strong a puff of air. Just be sure to clean the inside well before use, as it may still have some of the powdered mold release inside.

Pros: | Quite a blast for your money | Cons: | none yet | | First thing I did was wash the insides with soapy water rinced it good and let it dry thoroughly to ensure that there was no powder residue remaining from the manufacturing process.

Pros: | Does what it's designed to do. Fun design. | Cons: | None | | It's a great asset to have for any SLR photographer. Definitely a much safer and efficient way to blow dust off your lens, focusing screen, sensor, mirror, etc. It does what it's designed to do, and it does it well. Have been very happy with the purchase, especially because it's not much of an investment!

Pros: | small, inexpensive and does what is supposed to do! | Cons: | | | I love my rocket blower. This little thing keeps my equipment minty and dust free and of course is excellent at cleaning any stray debris that may land and attach to the sensor surface. I sue this blower to clean as necessary and for more stubborn debris, I use a SensorKleen pen after blowing the loose junk off. A vital necessity for every camera bag.

Pros: | well made, strong air flow | Cons: | | | I keep this blower in my camera bag, as it's smaller than the extra large blower I have at home. It works well, but the larger one takes less effort to clear dust.
