Lens cloth

yes --- lens cloth .. lint free ... and maybe get a cheap filter to protect the lens !!

Whats the best shop to get one. Would DID, Argos or Harvey Norman stock them?

I'd recommend a packet of those individually wrapped lens cloth that are damp (alcohol or something?)... great for removing grease.

+1 to Lens Cloth.

I would get a good quality UV Filter, if you can get one cheap then so be it.

i got lens cloths (dry) from mymemory.co.uk, nice and cheap to have in the bag. Filters can be gotten on ebay for next to nothing, I used this guy http://stores.shop.ebay.ie/petitephoto__W0QQ_armrsZ1 as he sent a replacement when something never arrived and product (cpl) seemed solid quality. expect to pay about a tenner for a filter of some form or another.

if you wear glasses you could use the one in your glasses case

and the spray you get for cleaning your glasses is great for cleaning the lens too
