 Underwhelming July 28, 2004

Although I had high hopes that I could carry this cleaning tool with me during my hikes, I've since decided that it's almost worthless. The main cleaning "tip" is too large to reach the oculars of my Nikon binoculars (nice going, Nikon!). And although I can use it to clean other lenses (objectives, camera), the results are uneven and unimpressive. As a long term Nikon user, I'm very disappointed that they've put their name on a product that's as mediocre as this one. Surely there's a better alternative for a compact cleaning kit that I can carry in the field! I certainly won't buy another one of these.
 it really does work March 12, 2005

does exactly what it's supposed to, and does it well.
to use:
1. with one end, extend the brush, and wipe debris away.
2. twist the cap on the other end, and take it off. with that end, wipe in a circular motion, and smudges get polished away.
Not that great October 29, 2005

The retractable brush is OK, but the "cleaning tip" is just a tiny disc (about the size of a paper-punch hole) of soft cloth, mounted on a rubber tip. It did clean the lens reasonably well, but I would think it would get dirty pretty quickly, and there is no way to clean it or replace it. And in my case, I won't care, since it fell off after a few uses (yes, I was treating it gently and not using any solvents).
I think there are much better choices available, unless all you want is the retractable brush.
 Easy to use lens cleaning device November 29, 2004

This is a easy to use lens cleaning device.
You use the bush end to remove any debris from the lens, and the pad end to remove fingerprints and the like.
The bush is retractable and soft enough not to damage lenses.
The pad is treated (coated) in such a way as to remove fingerprints without leaving smudges.
I have had excellent results using the Nikon Lens Pen on my Sony DSC F-828 digital camera. However it is important to note that the pad end is much too big to use on the electronic viewfinder (or anything else less than about a half an inch in diameter).
The Nikon Lens Pen appears to be identical to many other LensPens out there (they all seem to be identical except for branding and coloration). Perhaps they are all manufactured by one company (perhaps other than Nikon)?
Perfect for frequent cleaning out in the field January 22, 2005

This low-priced pen cleaning kit from Nikon is a must-have. I was surprised that it costs less than non-Nikon cleaning pens that do exactly the same.
One end of the pen has a soft brush which is retractable. It's perfect for brushing away dust on the lens. The other end is a cleaning pad, which is used to remove fingerprints and particles that get stuck on the lens. Because this product is small, it doesn't take up any space in the camera bag. It's also very convenient to use.
Of course, if your lens surface is really dirty, you should get a complete cleaning system including lens-friendly cleaning solution and soft tissue paper.
