Product Description: Your binocular or telescope uses highly precise optics. It's important to keep them as clean as possible to assure the best performance. Nikon makes it really easy and simple with the Lens Pen Cleaning System.
Works Great! I got these to have in my pocket for when I walk around at car shows or dusty areas that I can just take out the pen and open the brush and brush my lens off.
The other end has the cleaner/smudge removal pad and that works really well but I don't use it as much because I rarely touch the lens..
But it works great!
Another great product from Nikon.
Very nice - small, convenient and easy to use This is one of those little items that make you wonder why it took so long to come out. Rather than fiddling with cleaning clothes that always seem to trap everything but the dust on your lens, this is a quick, convenient way to reach exactly where needed. Takes minimal space and is right where you need it when needed. Very satisified!
Works pretty good Removes all but the most stubborn smudges and fingerprints safely. The brush end whisks away dust. Small enough to fit in your camera bag.
Cleans digital camera lens well I used this on our Canon handheld camera. It cleaned off months-old children's fingerprint smudges after several cycles of cleaning as per directions.
They got it right Nikon 7072 Lens Pen Cleaning System This is my first use of a lens pen of any sort. I've read about them, but worried that ANYTHING that repeatedly came in to "brushing" contact with a camera lens might eventually pick up grit and scratch. However, based on lots of good feedback, and the low price, I decided to give it a try.
I used it first on my viewfinder glass and LCD glass. I have a real issue with greasy "face" prints and "thumb" prints on my 50D LCD. This pen took immediate care of the "grease" with light rubbing. I then tried it on a cheaper lens of mine, and it really seemed to leave it crystal clear. I haven't used it on my "L" glass yet, but probably will if I end up with a greasy print or water spots on it. For the most part, I shoot with a UV filter/protector cover on my "L" glass, and wouldn't hesitate to use this pen on such a filter.
This pen works well, but I wish they had put a cover on the brush end. It would be easy for contaminants to get to that end of the pen, and then for the user to inadvertently "wipe" the brush on a lens, and transfer the contaminant. I will be looking for a make-shift cover to pop over the brush end to keep it safe.
Nice product, and I'll probably buy another to use on my eye glasses (and LCD screen/viewfinder) as I don't want to use the one for my lenses on ANYTHING but my lenses.
