I would appreciate it if anyone can recommend a good liquid lens cleaning solution. I have not used a liquid solution for cleaning my lenses but would like to get something to have on hand. Specific recommendation of brands you have used and were happy with would be great.

I am about to place an order with B&H (bhphotovideo.com) so a product they carry would be perfect.

Thanks.

These are lens tissues pre-moistened with Isopropyl alcohol. Just just/blow off the lens to ensure no grit, then wipe clean with tissue. Quickly air dries. Does a great job, easy to carry just a few with you, no concern on cleanliness of your (microfiber) cleaning cloth.

I used to get Zeiss brand at B&H, but appears they have switched to these. You can also get them (cheaper) at Walmart...either in photo dept or the eyeglass dept.

Thanks, Vince...

Those were the Zeiss lens cleaners I was looking for in my post.

Of course...If one does not mind using Nikon products on Canon :lol: (I use Nikon lens caps to replace the "cheesey" Canon ones...), you could save $2. a box ($4.95 vs. $6.95).
