Front Load Washer Cleaning Tips

Nice cleaning kit! Compact, everything one would expect and more! The retractable brush is a plus as well as the Q tips.

Solid cleaning kit. Blower is top notch, I find I use it mostly over the other items in the kit. The Q-tips are tightly packed cotton and did a good job cleaning hard to reach glass. Worth the money.

Someone please tell me any other film washer better than this.

Load everything up and move it from one location to the next. All my equipment fits perfectly. Collapses down to fit in the front seat area of my car, with the wheels on the floor. Don't need a truck just yet.

I haven't actually used this yet, but I did load it, weigh it, and pretend to put it in an overhead for practice. Seems perfect for my gear. I travel with a DLSR, mirrorless and 4 lenses. There is room for that and a change of clothes if a bag gets delayed. The front compartment easily holds my 15 laptop. The laptop compartment sort of locks by attaching the loop on the zipper to the integrated lock for the case (watch the video). The case rolls easily. I agree with the reviewer who said it would be nice if the bottom of the case was flat, but with my gear that is not a problem. The recommended accessory GRID-IT organizer of 10X12 does not fit the interior front pocket and looks like it has been removed as a suggestion. All-in-all this looks like it will be a great bag. It will be my carry-on but seems sturdy enough to gate check on smaller planes.

I couldn't be happier. This cart rolls over anything and carries all my gear. The only slight problem is if you load the rear with more weight than the front, the front wheel wiggle and increase resistance to push. Design questions, changes... why not make the deck a bit wider. It would allow for more gear between the hands (light stands, tripod, etc), and since there are wheels blocking the bottom rail, put something to hook onto for bungee cords.

This is a great day/travel bag for taking your camera and a spare lens. To me, it's one step up in complexity/organization from a peak design neckstrap, which I also have and use, for days when you want to grab the camera, but also second lens and extra battery. The bag wears comfortably, wraps around your back when not in use, swings around to the front, and you can wear it as a fanny pack (though I haven't). There are nice little nooks and crannies for extra batteries, cords, etc. The flexibility and capacity of the bag is a double-edged sword. Yes, you CAN load it up, a lot, and if you are flying somewhere and need the capacity, it's there. You could do an 80D with a 18-135, two pancakes on one side and an 85mm on the other, and have room to spare for more. But, if you really load this up to maximum capacity, it starts becoming like a traditional heavy camera bag, a psychological and physical burden that detracts from actually leaving the house, being mobile and taking out your camera quickly and actually using it. Just my thought process. One less that great thing... the front pocket is a little hard to access, for me, especially if the bag is full. It could have been made just a tad more roomy, maybe with some more give on the sides. As is, the cloth is very tight and you kinda have to pull it apart and plunge your hand across a sharp-ish zipper to get in there. Know what I mean? Maybe the next generation addresses that.

Got 'em for cleaning lenses, particularly front elements, but found they're also perfect for cleaning my reading glasses, which seem chronically grungy -- not any more!

For cleaning large swaths of film emulsion or front surface mirror or big lenses, these are wide enough to cover a large area and sturdy enough to wick up a decent amount of cleaning solution. Terrific. No residue, no lint, no tearing.

The main use for Zeiss lens wipes are for the front elements of my lenses. I do not use UV or any other clear filter on my lenses, never have. I usually clear my lenes with a Giottos Rocket Air Blaster sold at B&H. If I do get anything else on my lens I use these Zeiss lens wipes, they clean anything off and then evaporates leaving a very clean front element. I also use them to clean my glasses, they work great for that. My binoculars see them once a season or so. My computer screen gets a cleaning now and then with them. I also carry them in my car in case I need them on the road. They can also do a great job cleaning my camera off of dust, dirt, or whatever the environment throws it's way. Never leave home without them, they are always in my camera bag.
