Cleaning the Lens
IF DUSTY
:
Brush most of the dust off with a camel-hair brush and/or blow dust away with
compressed air.
Fold a microfibre cloth smooth and gently wipe remaining dust particles off the lens.
Make sure to wipe evenly with the smooth portion of the cloth that has no folds or
creases. Do not apply pressure with your fingers—use the tension in the folded cloth
itself to collect the dust.
If significant dust is still bound to the surface, dampen a clean microfibre cloth with
lens cleaning solution (damp, not dripping). Wipe gently until clean.
IF FINGERPRINTS, SMUDGES, OIL:
1.
Brush most of the dust off with a camel-hair brush and/or blow dust away with
compressed air.
2.
Roll a lens tissue around a swab and soak in lens cleaning solution. Tissue should
be damp but not dripping.
3.
Gently wipe the surface using a figure-8 motion. Repeat until blemish is
removed.
