CLEANING THE LENSES
For an optimum image quality, make sure that your Optimo Prime lens is cleaned every time you use it. To clean the optics, use an optical
cleaning solution and use a soft cloth. For optimum cleaning use an optical cloth and an isopropyl alcohol liquid, start with the center and clean
by turning outwards.
LUBRICATION
The focus and iris mechanisms are factory lubricated.
If you stored an Optimo Prime lens for a long time or if you are going to use it in a cold
environment, move the focus and iris rings several times before using it. If you used an Optimo Prime lens frequently or in extreme conditions,
make sure the mechanisms work properly. If necessary, clean and lubricate the mechanism. It is highly recommended to use the grease
provided by Angénieux. For any additional information please contact your local reseller or Angénieux international customer support at:
