The FireFly cleans your camera sensor with ionized air
The FireFly neutralizes the static charge which can cause dust to stick to your mirror box, shutter chamber, and image sensor filter
Powered by a 9-volt battery, the device sits between a traditional air bulb and a nozzle which is inserted into the body of the camera
Because the FireFly features a 20 micron filter, nothing but pure air gets into your camera
The latest version of the FireFly automatically turns off after 15 seconds meaning you can use it with one hand
