Hama 00005607 blower brush

I will huff and I will puff and I will blow your lens clean. At least the Hama green 00005607 brushes will.

A blower brush is an invaluable camera accessory. Dust and specks of dirt get onto a camera lens and if you take a photo of Aunt Jane you will see specks of dirt on the print, that's no good.
So a blower brush is a useful tool. This green one made by Hama has a round rubber bulb 40mm in diameter. Squeeze this bulb and air will travel down the 45mmlong tube/neck. To the brush at the end this brush is small and has soft fine hairs. If just the air does not remover the dust spec then you can brush it off with this soft brush.

This brush is useful for blowing, brushing dust away from any optical equipment. Be carefull do not attempt to brush sand off your lens try and blow it away or you may get scratches. The Hama blower brush does not give such a strong blast of air as the Giotto air rockets that I wrote about in an earlier review.
The rubber bulb has circular ridges running round it . It is quite firm needs a good squeeze, I have used softer to squeeze air brushes. I think this blower brush will last quite a long time without perishing. The one I have is my dads he has had it quite a while.
Hamas is a german company was founded in Dresden Germany in 1923 . Now there is a UK headquarters in Basingstoke, Hampshire .

Blower brushes are not very expensive this one costs £6.29 plus £6.18p shipping from http://www.amazon.co.uk/exec/obidos/tg/detail/offe r-listing/-/B00006IVK9/new
I am sorry I can not find this anywhere else on line I checked the Dixon's and the Jessop's camera shop sites. I guess dad bought or had this given to him a while ago.
Overall this is very similar to many other blower brushes that are available. Thanks for reading Mary
