I no longer have my old 20 gal. compressor, but when I did, it was  
fine for cleaning camera equipment as long as the air went through one  
or two in line filters to trap the moisture and oil that the  
compressor creates.

If you have or had one of the blow up air beds, or a child's swimming  
pool, it may have come with a foot operated pump. Attach a flexible  
surgical tubing length to it and you have an inexpensive source of  
puff air that frees your hands. These items may even be available in  
bicycle shops as an alternative to the hand pumps.
