So, much to my reading here I have the giotto large and the lens pen. I forgot to order a few lens cloths, micro fiber ect. Based on member usage success, what would you recommend? :rolleyes:

I personally have never bought a specific "camera" microfiber towel. I always just rob one from my car detailing supplies when I buy them. Does a great job. And cheap too.

I usually pick mine up from the local opticians, but I did go all out once and buy a Spudz (http://www.warehouseexpress.com/product/default.aspx?sku=1013798)one which tucks into its own pouch. Very handy when it sits in your pocket as it doesn't pick up all the lint and muck.

Costco sells a blister-pack (imagine that) with towels, cleaner and some other little accessories for about 5 or 6 bucks. And, you get free refills on the cleaner. It is the best stuff I've found so far.

I'm with Phil. I have the light blue cloths from Costco from buying glasses there and I bought the kit and found out the soft cloths work well. Just remember to spray the cloth, not the lens.

Walmart has SPUDZ for 1.50$ a piece on a clearance rack, in the sporting goods section.

Thanks. I am going there today. I have about 10 clothes, but I keep losing them. I need to put one in every pocket. :)
