I definitely wouldn't use Q-tips. If I have to use water, I only use distilled water as tap water contains minute mineral particles.
The use of distilled water is an excellent idea and inexpensive also. :t:

My Lens Pen experience is less positive.
I tried to clean the lens of my Canon SX260 pocket zoom and just scratched the lens.
Probably not the Lens Pens fault, the camera lens only extends when powered and so preliminary rinsing is out of the question. Still, the brush clearly did not remove all debris, so using the pen did damage.
Always rinse first to flush out the grit!

Correct...on most SLR lenses and bino optic glass, their "water proof" status allows for a good rinsing first. Out in the field, a good blower, then a clean pen should work equally well!

Just goes to show that those of us that are born under the sign of Sagittarius think alike. :-O
