Hi Bob ... I was doing something quite similar, using a remote stream in the Canadian Rockies, but, unfortunately, weather conditions are such right now that Mounties won't let anyone through the Tawandehoo Pass until the thaw. This is a problem as most of my micro-fibre cloths are stalled in transit, and the ones I use for A* lenses and those for the Leica glass are amongst that batch. You seem to be pretty knowledgeable about such things - can I safely use a cloth that has been dedicated to SMC Takumar lenses on later Pentax lenses, specifically the A* series. How might they work on Leica lenses? I've always kept the German and the Japanese cloths separate, based on advice received from the Leica list.
