One of the things that will turn grown men into mewling kittens is any
mention of using canned gas as a dust removing method for cameras.
Don't do it, they say, it is instant death for your camera. Sometimes so
stridently that one would think they were having kittens.
But really, how unsafe is it? What is the very worst case scenario? How
about a blast of liquid straight from the can?
I invite you to watch a short 1 minute (very amateur) video. The white
blast at the 15 second mark is a blast from an upside down canned gas
container being unloaded into the mirror box of a Pentax *istD camera.
The camera suffered absolutely no ill effects from this abuse.
