♦ 3) Precision Design 6-Piece Deluxe Cleaning Kit

The LensPEN LP-1 Lens Cleaning System is the simple and effective way to clean your optics when they get dirty out in the field — before the dust, dust, and grime begin to build up, becoming more and more difficult to remove. This is how simple the LensPEN is to use: 1) Slide out the retractable brush, using it to remove any dust particles; 2) Remove the end cap to expose the cleaning pad; 3) Using a smooth, circular motion, wipe the lens surface with the unique flexible cleaning pad. If any smudges remain, just breathe gently on the lens and repeat the cleaning process. The unique cleaning compound will not spill or dry out and is both environmentally-friendly and non-toxic.

The LensPen DigiKlear DK-1 LCD Screen Cleaning System cleans the LCD screens on digital cameras and camcorders. A special triangular tip gives you the ability to clean all the way to the corners which would otherwise remain covered in dust and grime. The DigiKlear also works great on PDA's and cell phones.

The Precision Design 6-Piece Deluxe Cleaning Kit includes what you need to keep your equipment sparkling clean: Hurricane Air Blower; Cleaning Brush; Lens Cleaning Cloth; Lens Tissue; Lens Cleaning Liquid; and Cotton Swabs.

This value-packed LensPen Lens & LCD Precision Design Combo Cleaning Kit is the perfect companion to help you clean your film and digital cameras, lenses, camcorders, binoculars and scopes.


Customer Review: Lens cleaner kit works great
The lens cleaner pen really worked well. I went to the ocean and it cleans salt and water spots right off the lens. I am very happy with this product.


When I wrote a column on freelancing, I sometimes received questions as a result of what I had written. After I discussed submissions to editors I received an e-mail from a reader which read in part, 'One thing that I don't believe that you covered was the question of rejection. Specifically, do you enclose an SAE (stamped, addressed envelope) for the return of your material, do you "write it off" if not accepted or do you assume that it will be accepted!'.

I replied, 'I do include an sae with all speculative submissions (I wish I could assume acceptance!) so that I may possibly hear what has happened to the submission. Sadly, not all editors use the sae and I am left wondering about my material but that is just one of the hazards of freelancing. Now that I send material out on a CD, I'm not as concerned as I used to be when my submissions were transparencies but I still like to keep my records as straight as possible and I can only hope for a reply if I include the sae.'

Keeping records straight is an important part of freelancing as we do not want to submit identical or similar pictures to competing magazines at the same time. So, what do I do if I do not hear from an editor about a submission?

I suppose I could contact them and ask whether they had made a decision but I reckon that if they haven't bothered to use the sae or send an e-mail then they probably won't reply to my query. I generally give them the benefit of the doubt and assume that they are holding on to the CD for possible future use so I refrain from sending similar pictures to competing markets at least for a few months. However, if nothing has been heard after a reasonable time, say three months, and I need to send to their competitors, I take the gamble and do so. After all, I am not offering exclusive rights for editorial use and for calendar and greeting card use my images are marked, 'rights to be agreed'.
