I used LensPen once before I got the hilarious-looking big Giotto Rocket...which has so-far worked as well, and is good extra padding in a camera bag.
Since some say the Rocket is not always enough and since LensPen takes up no space, I carry both. I don't want to mess with sensor cleaning fluids, would rather use Photoshop.
Foolishly (I guess), I also got the bizarre Pentax-branded ($$$ Adorama) sensor cleaning stick ( its said to work especially with especially nasty/sticky pollen on a sensor).
