7072 Lens Pen Cleaning System, Black

Love this! It works well and I’ve already used it to clean both of my point and shoot camera lenses as well as my regular camera. It should also work for my drone’s camera lens! Perfect tool at a good price range. Definitely removes finger prints and dust. Highly recommend

Been using this camera cleaning pen on my Sony A6000 and it works great. Cleans with no streaks or scratching compact and fits on the side on my camera bag or in my pocket with ease.

I got this to brush grit of safety classes before cleaning. It does the job. I like that the brush retracts so it stays clean. I thought it would be a finer softer brush but I assume that Nikon knows their business. I've not tried the cleaning swab. Inexpensive. Very pleased

This is probably one of the better lens pens I have tried, but it's still not perfect. Some of the brush bristles will fall out as you're using it because they aren't all 100% secure in the plastic, and the microfiber tip can sometimes grab on the edges of a lens and can tear a little, but it is soft and doesn't scratch anything Overall it's pretty effective and cleans pretty well

Great device to clean your camera lens. Easy to use

I purchased this along with some other things so that I could get free super-saver shipping. It effectively cost me ~$3! For that price or for the $8 it is absolutely worth every penny. This pen stays in my camera bag along with my D50 and does it all. It cleans my filters, my lenses, my viewfinder, and my LCD. Definitely a great purchase. Includes both a brush and a swab/sponge to take care of any foreign objects on your photographic equipment. I would definitely buy another! =) EDIT December 2007: I've now had this cleaner for almost 8 months and it's still holding strong! The brush has been very useful to rid my lenses, filters, and even my camera of dust and other things. And the swab/sponge does a FANTASTIC job of getting rid of finger prints, smudges, and just about everything else on your lens and filters. It also works great in a pinch to clean up your in camera LCD screen from those pesky nose-prints and smudges! The only complaints I have are the following: -The swab/sponge sometimes leaves little black pieces of itself on the lenses if you use it really hard to clean something off. BUT, these are a cinch to get rid of with the brush at the other end, so it's not really to big of an issue. -One problem in extreme conditions: Salty Sea Spray takes quite a bit to get off. It takes about three passes with the swab/sponge to get it all off; including breathing on my filter to get some moisture on it to help clean and also "refresh" the swab/sponge by "cleaning"/"recharging" it in it's own cap which has a little foam in it to clean the swab/sponge. Generally I'd DEFINITELY still recommend this product to ANYONE who needs to keep their equipment clean. Absolutely worth every penny; it keeps my pictures clean and spot free!

Lens pens such as this Nikon 7072 Lens Pen Cleaning System are quite handy and great for field use, but they can be misunderstood. Think of these as a brush for removing debris from the front of the lens or the filter with a small cleaning pad at the other end, and you'll be closer to what they are. I've had a few of these under different brand names, but they all seem to function the same way. In Use: The main thing to remember is that the lens brush portion of this device is the essential tool to remove dust and debris from your filter or front lens surface while in the field. It should be used gently, just dusting off any debris or dust that you may find on the lens. I use protective UV filters on each of my DSLR lenses, but most compact digital cameras don't have the option of using these. Most of the compact point-and-shoot cameras have protective louver blades, and the lens retracts behind these when the camera is turned off. In that case, dust or debris could be trapped behind the protective blades, so it's doubly important with these compact cameras to dust off any debris before powering off. The retractable brush slides out for use quite easily, and it's quite soft. You may be tempted to touch the brush, but it's suggested that this be avoided, as your fingers may leave oils on the brush tip, and then you may find that it leaves streaks on the lens or filter surface, which will result in it needing further cleaning. At the other end is a capped cleaning pad for removing smudges and fingerprint marks from the end of your lens. This part should be employed only after you've used the brush portion to clean dust or debris from the filter or lens surface. If you rub too hard and dust residue is still present, it can leave small or microscopic scratches on the multicoated lens surface, and that's not something you want. Just remember: brush first, then wipe, and you should be OK. Alternative Products: As noted earlier, there is a variety of similar devices available here. The AmazonBasics Lens Pen Cleaning System is a good one, and it has slightly different features. The original LensPEN Lens Cleaning System , where most these had their beginnings, is a proven product, and there's a newer version, the LensPen NLP-1 , which is more compact than its predecessors. If you look around here, you'll find other brands as well, so compare the features and the prices, as they do fluctuate. Additional Cleaning Remedies: Anyone with a digital camera knows that it's almost impossible to keep the LCD display screen clean and free of fingerprints. One can get the various clear film screen protectors, only to find within a few days or weeks they will fall off, or they'll be the type that are sticky, and leave a gummy residue all over the back of your camera. There are some made of ultra-thin optical glass "with at least 90% transmittance" but some of those also require gummy tape to be applied to the LCD screen or the rear of the camera. I don't clean the LCD screen on any of my digital cameras with any part of the lens pen. I use the Nikon 8072 Microfiber Cleaning Cloth , which is the same thing that I use on my eyeglasses, and there's one that's attached to my camera bag right now. The main reason is that all too often there will be additional fingerprints or even "nose grease" on the LCD surface, and I've found it better to not let this contaminate the lens surface. When at home, I'll usually use the larger Nikon MicroKlear Microfiber Cleaning Cloth for general maintenance. What they don't tell you is that the microfiber cleaning cloth is washable, so I've had years of use from these. Summary: These products are all relatively inexpensive, and are a low cost way of maintaining your photo gear. The Nikon 7072 Lens Pen Cleaning System and the others mentioned here are quite compact, and fit quite easily into even small camera bags. Any of these would make a great gift for a photographer or anyone using field optics, and are usually quite appreciated. They're highly recommended for keepin' it clean. 9/3/2012

If I used cameras, I would for sure use this on them. I use it on my Apple Vision Pro and it works great for cleaning up the lenses safely. I just buy a new one when the carbon thing gets 'used up', I should probably figure out if there's a way to clean it

Cet accessoire ne paye pas de mine (désolé pour le jeu de mot) mais il est exceptionnel. Madame a nettoyé tous les objectif facilement sans aucun problème, et le résultat est parfait. Pour nous qui avions peur pour nos objectif et qui n'avions jamais acheté de filtre ou de verre protecteur, ce stylo a redonné un coup de jeunesse à nos 3 objectifs ! Simple, efficace, pratique, peu encombrant, pas cher, que dire de plus.

やっぱりNikon純正の安心感は値段に代え難い価値！

Der Nikon Lens Pen Reinigungsstift ist meiner Meinung nach ganz praktisch habe ihn jedoch auch noch nicht oft in gebrauch gehabt. Was ich jedoch sagen kann ist, dass er für den Preis die Linse eigentlich ganz gut reinigt. Weiss allerdings auch nicht ob es nicht noch bessere Produkte giebt da ich nur ein einfacher Hobby Fotograf bin.

Entrega puntual. Satisfecha con la compra. Buena calidad, buena marca y un precio inmejorable. Lo uso muy a menudo y me parece muy buena compra.
