If the video image becomes blurry or smudged in areas, it may be because the lens or IR window requires
cleaning.

l
From the camera web interface, the washer and wiper can be activated from the Live View page.

that does not have a wiper, manually clean the camera windows as needed:
l
Use hand soap or a non-abrasive detergent to wash off dirt or fingerprints.
l
Use a microfiber cloth or non-abrasive fabric to dry the dome bubble.
