5.0 out of 5 stars The only lens cleaning tool I keep with me, February 3, 2008

By	Cruising "Cruising" (Illinois USA) - See all my reviews

I have tried so many different cleaning tools, and I always stuck with the basic lens tissues and cleaners. But with today's lenses, they didn't do the job (speed and ease) I was looking for.

The guy at my local (100 year old) camera shop recommended I try one of these.

I have removed all other cleaning items out of my bag except for one "cloth" that I use to clean the outside of my camera and this pen.

Always start with the "brush" to brush away any grit or sand that could possibly scratch the lens. Then lightly, use the other side (felt) to clean away smudges and other marks. It's quick, easy and unbelievably effective!

I use it on my lenses, the LCD of my SLR and even my cell phone.

The first one lasted me a year. I am on my second and recommend it everywhere I go.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Great Portable Lens Cleaning Machine..., January 19, 2008

By	Hawkeye (C.B., Iowa) - See all my reviews

I read about the LensPen in a photography magazine and decided to give it a try. Trying to keep DSLR filters and camera lenses clean is a chore, especially when cleaning liquids keep leaving some smearing, no matter how careful you try to be. The Lenspen has two types of cleaners in one small package -- a very good dust brush and an excellent cleaning wiper for smudges or dried moisture spots. I learned the hard way that dust can build up over time, especially on the small lenses of point and shoot digital cameras. This makes the pictures you take blury and darker than they should be. Don't be disappointed, if you want to keep those pictures as crisp as when your camera was new, you need to keep a lenspen in your camera bag and use it before every shoot. Two great tools in one tiny package make this job as simple as can be!

3.0 out of 5 stars Do these things really work?, February 1, 2009

By	K. Genov "KG" (Bethesda, MD USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I bought a set of two. It worked ok on my newer lenses (film SLRs - Mamiya, and Fijinon), but then again they were not that dirty. I buy a lot of vintage cameras and I was hoping I can use the lenses for those as well. Not sure if it's because of the lack of coating or fewer layers on some but I don't believe the lenspens made any difference whatsoever. The brush is nice but the felt actually leaves some rubbery residue behind...I will probably stick with the cloth and liquid - at least when it comes down to the older lenses...
