This review is from: Hama Lens Cleaning Pen (Accessory)
This tool is small and extremely easy and quick to use, easier to store than a lense cloth and easier to use quickly and put back away, both of these factors make it perfectly designed for photographing on the go. It is designed like a pen, one end with a soft brush that retracts into the housing to save from being ruined in storage, the other side is a moisture-chemical pad that you wipe over the lense to clean. The size of the moisture tip is about the size of a five-penny coin so its big enough to be used quickly. Superb.

I’ve been using these for a few years, and buy a couple a year. I shoot for a living, doing a lot of work out and about, and these little pens are great for getting rid of thumb smudges or more commonly, the build up of residue from rain drops and mist that sometimes end up on the end of the glass. They are almost magical in the way they clean the lens without leaving any residue. The cap seems to contain a moist pad in the bottom that must refresh the cleaning tip, but it always comes out ready for more! It takes a lot of crud before these things stop working, and I’v never left a visible scratch or mark on a surface through using these. Far less agro than messing about with a lens cloth.

Used it to clean the lens of my camera, 14 Jun 2004

I accidentally touched my new canon camera lens, and then tried to clean it with a common cloth. Instead of cleaning it, it smeard the whole lens, and the pictures were also not turning out as sharp as before. Just got this lens cleaner today, and tried it on my camera. It has made the surface of my camera shine just as its new again. Unbelievably good. Highly recommended.
