Giottos AA1920 Rocket Air Blaster Small-Black

Theses are just top of the range-ideal.

This is the smallest of the Giottos "rocket" blowers. Operation is simple, just squeeze the bulb to generate a blast of air to blow dust off your camera lens. The "rocket fins" let you stand it up so the nozzle has no chance of picking up dirt or mud that might block the hole or transfer to your lens. They also have holes in that you could use to attach the blower to a neck, camera or bag strap.It is obviously less effective than its bigger brothers, it holds less air and there's less to grip to aim and hold it steady. You need to pump it a little harder, and it requires some practice to keep the nozzle pointing in the right direction as you squeeze it. I find it best to close my hand around it, almost making a fist, with the nozzle sticking out at a right angle to my fingers.If size is no issue, better to buy the bigger versions. But if you are short of space in your camera bag, or you want something unintrusive that you can hang on a neck or camera strap - then this is ideal. Once I got the hang of using it, I've found it very effective for keeping my lenses etc dust-free out in the field.

Love these products but now impossible to buy here in the UK. Have to search further afield abroad which, if purchased from the USA, can become very expensive due to import/transit costs. Recommended nonetheless.

I was concerned that something this size wouldn't have enough strength to dislodge dust, but it's OK; not as good as a full sized job, but better than those tiny things that just wheeze.

I have had two other puffers, neither of which worked very well. This one does!

It's amazing...not small, nor big, just the right proportions to assure a functional and powerful air blow. Furthermore the materials (silicone) seems to be really durable and reliable. Definitely a good purchase.

Not bad! Didn't clear my muck in the viewfinder but probably not the failt of this blower!

Great for a camera bag when you don't have enough room for the large version.

I just received mine today and I LOVE it! I initially purchased the Large version of this item, without looking at the product's dimensions - sadly the Large size is much too big to fit into my camera bag as something I'd be able to always have with me, but I still kept the Large version because it is substantially more powerful than this Small size which makes it great for blowing dust off my sensor when I'm at home. But this Small version is perfect for taking with me, since it easily fits into my camera bag. It's great for blowing dust off the front and rear glass of my lenses, and is also very useful for blasting dirt off my DSLR's mirror and interior. It's true that this Small version has a lot less blowing power than the Large version, so it may not remove any stuck-on dirt or dust, but it works wonders for anything loose. The best feature of this blower (in my opinion, at least) is the valve that prevents it from sucking in dust that you're blowing out - both the Small and Large versions include this feature, which makes it one of the best air blasters on the market that I've used or seen. Cannot recommend this item enough! If you aren't concerned with being able to always carry it with you, and you care more about power, I would suggest choosing the Large version instead. But if you want one that you can easily fit into your camera bag, this Small version is definitely the one to get!

Diese Mini-Version bietet fast alle Vorzüge des großen Giottos-Blasebalgs (praktische Form, Filterventil) in komprimierter Form. Der erzielbare Luftstoß ist klarerweise geringer als beim großen Giottos, aber im Gegenzug ist der kleine Rocket Air Blaster viel handlicher und passt wohl in fast jede Fototasche. Die Gummi-Kugel hat übrigens einen Durchmesser von 55 mm.Ich verwende diesen kleinen Rocket Blaster auch, um Staub von Kleinbild-Negativen und -Dias vor dem Scannen wegzupusten - das klappt einwandfrei.

Conforme et de bonne qualité
