Help me understand why this cleaning kit is $273??

Most cleaning kits are under $20 bucks.  What's the deal with this one?

Extensive gadgetry!

I don't use wet stuff anyway.

Light is free… capturing it is not!

There is no reason it should sell for that much nor is there any reason someone should buy it.  I like the Zeiss lens wipes and a microfiber cloth.

It costs so much because of the specialty tools included. The decision becomes do you need these tools. If you want to examine the sensor in great detail then yes, you need these tools. Most people that I have seen do this professionally use these tools. Some may think it's crazy or foolish but there is a purpose and a reason for them.
