Ionos Gear – Sensor Cleaning & Lens Changing CaseStarting at $350
IonosGear I: Lens Changing and Sensor Cleaning Camera Case -US Patent 7,841,786 B2
Problem: Digital Single Lens Reflex (DSLR) cameras and Mirrorless Interchangeable Lens cameras (MILC), as well as video cameras with interchangeable lenses are vulnerable to sensor dust during lens changing and sensor cleaning. Dust on the camera sensor causes spots on pictures and in certain environments there can be fungal growth in the camera body and lenses.
Solution: A protective case that is portable, lightweight and easy to setup and take down “out in the field” or studio. Within the case, an ion field drops contamination in the case so lenses can be changed or the camera’s internal workings can be maintained without fear of ambient dust landing on the image senor or interior of the camera. Dust degrades images. IonosGear is an asset to outdoor, wildlife, safari and nature photographers or photojournalist operating in extreme dust environments.
