The LensPen is one of the most invaluable accessories a photographer can own. Its unique design makes cleaning your lens fast, simple and effective. On one end, a retractable soft brush sweeps dust and loose particles away from the glass. On the other end, a special dry cleaning compound is used to gently remove fingerprints and spots. The result is a crystal clear lens surface and better pictures in just seconds, a feat that other cleaning items just can't match.
The LensPen DigiKlear LCD Cleaning System has a special triangular tip that gives it the ability to clean the corners of many screens that would otherwise remain covered in dust and grime. The result is a crystal clear screen in just seconds, a feat that other cleaning items just can't match.
This 6-piece cleaning kit contains a Hurricane air blower, lens cleaning tissues, lens cloth, lens cleaning liquid, blower brush and cotton swabs.
Customer Review: Great Backpack for the Size
I bought this kit mainly for the pack. The cleaning system is mostly throwaway, as expected, but still cheaper than buying the lenspens' separately. My Canon 40D with a 70-200 lens fits nicely, even with a 1.4x extender mounted and the accessory bag in place. There is room for a couple more lenses in there as well. The rear loading takes a little getting used to. Nothing wrong with it, just years of ingrained memory with a front loading pack to overcome. After using it, you wonder why all packs aren't this way. It makes total sense and not worrying about putting the dirty side of the pack on your back is a nice relief. With the waist belt in place, you can safely un-shoulder the bag and swing it around for access without completely removing. My reasons for not giving a perfect five star rating are as follows. The bag is a bit too narrow. This limits internal storage such that only one side of center is usable for lenses; the other side is only wide enough for small accessories. The narrow width also means you can't reach the water bottle while the bag is shouldered. This may not be an issue for a small framed person, but I have broad shoulders and don't even come close to reaching. The side pocket for CF cards and such is a bit too tight. Also, because the zipper doesn't go all the way down, access to the bottom is slightly restricted. This was an intentional design choice to retain the sturdy bottom tray but worth noting. On the plus side, in addition to the rear loading, this pack is very well constructed. The padding is ample and firm, the carry handle is great, and the shoulder straps are comfortable. There appears to be some kind of rigid material in key places to help retain the pack's shape. The pack feels sturdy enough that you could toss it across a parking lot and your gear would still be fine, not that I recommend doing so. The bottom tray is sturdy and flat, allowing the pack to stand upright and remain stable, even when loaded. Overall, a great pack for a small amount of gear.
