Rating : - A neat, useful idea
I've been using these for years and they are a great help in some situations. They do a great job of removing finger smudges and smears, and can be used with lens cleaning fluid (applied to the cloth) for more stubborn crud. The cloth is not absorbent enough to remove alot of water, so I sometimes carry a paper napkin as a blotter. I use them on my binoculars, spotting scopes and cameras. There are obvious cautions: if there is any dust or grit that might be abrasive on the lens, rubbing with anything is a very bad idea. I do use the cloth in the field to kind of brush or lift such dirt very carefully. A brush would be much better but of course I never carry one. Once you have done that, it is necessary to clean the cloth before using again, however. I unclip the bag and put it in my pocket to remind myself to clean the cloth. Sometimes dust can just be brushed away by hand. Best idea is a thorough rinsing, and that's why a 4 star rating instead of 5. The cloth is sewn into the bottom of the bag, making it impossible to clean as well as I would like. Some sort of clip retainer would make cleaning much easier. As it is, the bag can be turned inside out to facilitate cleaning. I know many people (including me) sometimes go a long time between cleaning, and at some point the crud imbedded in the cloth will reduce cleaning effectiveness and increase danger of scratching. Overall, a convenient way to clean lenses in the field with minimum danger of damage.
