Bower is a common line of low-cost lenses. They have some interesting products, such as a fisheye lens that can be unscrewed from its front element and the rear element used as a macro lens. Bower does not sell direct, and I cannot find a website for the company. bhphotovideo.com carries a full line of Bower lenses and accessories, which are also available all over the Web and in retail stores.

I added the link to their website in the related links section at the bottom.

Are Bower lenses a good investment for a beginner or even mid level photographer?

Not anymore, no. Bower lenses are manual focus only, and beginners and midlevel photographers have bought cameras with autofocus sensors for decades now. My impression here is that anyone who wants a manual focus camera also wants it to take film--and Bower lenses are specially made for digital cameras. I have no idea why anyone would make a lens like this anymore.

Do slr lenses fit all cameras?

Generally, no. Each manufacturer has proprietary mounts for their lenses and, for example, Nikon lenses will not fit a Canon and so on.

Can you use alcohol wipes to clean camera lenses?

It would depend on the lens. Higher quality lenses are coated with a substance to help eliminate distortion and light polution. If you look at the lenses glass and you see a multi-coloured reflection on the glass, then it is probably coated. Alcohol should not be used on these lenses. It would be better to use a camera lens specific cleaning cloth to clean them.
