Mini cleaning pen - every camera user should have one

Mini cleaning pen - every camera user should have one

Still cleaning your camera lens with tissues? For shame. The Lenspen is a nifty device that's been around for years, and uses carbon tip to keep your camera in top condition.
We saw Tasco's mini-laptop cleaner at the PMA camera expo in Brisbane last month, and were impressed by how it made our grimy laptop screen shiny and smudge-free again.

Since then we've had a play with Tasco's Lenspen, which uses the same carbon compound to remove smudges, but this time for camera lenses. There's a brush at one end, which gets rid of dust, then a small dry tip at the other which you rub against the lens surface.

The only problem we found was that the Lenspen is too big for some compact digital camera lenses (Canon's new Powershot range, for example). Otherwise this is a handy tool worth a look for most photographers.
