The problem I've had with the above mentioned approach is where cloths always leave a residue(looking in good light) on the lens. So I was never fully satisfied with my efforts and kept looking for the holy grail of lens cleaning.
That's when I found a small lens cleaning tutorial on the web that involved the infamous lens pen. Which consisted of the following process:
1. Blow off particles.
2. Brush away remaining dust or particles.
3. Use lens tissue with optical cleaner to remove grime.
3. Use lens pen to finish
The above mentioned process has allowed me to clean my lenses to a flawless finish everytime. Whereas the tissues never fully cleaned the glass let alone the micro fiber cloths which become contaminated with oils and dirt from handling.
To help illustrate, here is a chart showing the difference between the lens pens and traditional cleaning methods:
And I can attest to the image above with my own experiences.
And since the original Lenspen can be had on eBay for less than 4USD, I usually keep a pair in my pack for cleaning at all times. They seem to last aprox. 3 months(for me) before they don't seem to work anymore. So I just keep my supply up by ordering 4-6 units at a time.
