Is the Nikon lens cleaning pen good for P&amp;S camera (Canon 950)? Nikon 7072 Lens Pen Cleaning System (and similar size ones available from other companies) - or is it primarily for SLR camera lenses?

I would be comfortable using this pen on most if not all glass (except etched). Just be sure not to press too hard, because I'm not sure how well the lens is attached into the zoom body on those cameras.

By inside, if you mean, the end that connects with the camera body, then yes. HOWEVER. the pen (not brush) does leave carbon dust and so be careful not to leave any on the "inside". Honestly, in all my years, I've never had to do anything to the camera end of a lens other than dust with a brush or blower. There should be no other dirt or finger prints as can happen to the subject side of a camera lens,

I have used a lens pen on polarizer for years with no apparent issues. I use a very very light touch and use the tip end only on smug and not dust.

Just a novice, but I installed a 52mm screw-on UV filter on the front of the lens to protect it from scratches. This keeps dirt off the lens and allows me to clean only the filter with alcohol wipes without fear of damaging the lens. If the UV filter gets scratched, it is easily, and most importantly, inexpensively replaced. Check with a real camera store for cleaning materials for lenses. On-line searches for camera forums should also provide a wealth of information.

We cleaned and replaced all the light seals and mirror damper in all the cameras we sell. Please look for Blue Penn if you are looking for buy a Nikon camera. We also give a 90-day warranty.

Yeah, I used nikons lens cleaner solution and it messed up the filter. There smudge marks now stuck on the filter and cant get it off or that could be the coating that most likely came off.

I'm not sure exactly what you question is because the only statement forwarded me by Amazon was "the lens cap fit to nikon p7700 ?" I ordered lens cap Nikon LC-N40.5 which has a more secure fit than the lens cap that comes with the Nikon P7700. Don't regret having "swapped" out the cap originally sent with the P7700. It just wouldn't stay in place. Hope this helps you. Also I ordered a Nikon NC 40.5 mm filter. Do you really need it? Probably not, but it does afford great protection in case you hit the front lens element. I have several other Nikon products and multiple lens and always order a filter for protection. The NC does not affect picture quality so I believe it's a good idea to buy it. Much cheaper than having to replace a lens element in case of accident. Hope this helps you.

It would be good for cleaning the viewfinder or any other glass lenses. Eyeglasses: yes you can use this on eyeglasses, but only on glass based lenses, not plastic. DO NOT use this on contact lenses that you put on your eye.

Thanks very much. By the way, we have a Canon G12. I feel it too distorting both colours and proportions and of course slow between 2 clicks. What would you suggest to improve on "fidelity" and speed: A. Canon S100 over Nikon P7100 (and Olympus XZ-1?)?B. Olympus E-PM1 over Nikon J1? C. or Nikon V1 solves everything? PS. I have no Nikon lenses so I am not stuck on Nikon. Thanks

My unit is over 4 years old so instructions may have changed, but page 43 of my operating instruction says lens cleaner RP-CL720PP may be used on this unit. I have never cleaned mine. A search for "DVD Lens Cleaner" should turn up some choices.

Totally dry. You need to buy the Eclipse Optic Cleaning Fluid to go with it. In general, the swab and the fluid seem to remove dust ok, but if you have oil spots, it won't really work. I tried the swab seven or eight times on my new Nikon D800 trying to remove some oil spots, it did not work. I ended up taking it in to have it professionally cleaned. Goog luck!

The Nikon Lens Pen I got I wouldn't use for cleaning the windows of an outhouse! Utter crap....

I have my new bag sitting here in the office, still in the box :-( I'm retired and I'm still too busy to do everything I want. I ordered the lenscap leash with the camera. Thanks for mentioning the lens brush/cleaner. I really do need one of those. Have a good weekend Ernie.

I have a chamois tipped cleaner (optics cleaner), it also has a lite brush on the opposite end, it's made for cleaning optics (binos, scopes, cameras lens). I've also used a lint free cloth to wipe the lens of my cameras, glasses ect.

I attach low cost clear filters on all of my lenses for protection from dusts, deposits and finger prints on the glass. Thus, I have never wiped, never contacted the lens glass. I clean the filters by using water from reverse osmosis in my kitchen whenever I find deposits and/or dusts on the filter glass. To my tests, I do not see my low cost filters make any adverse effects on the pictures taken by myself.
