Tools for cleaning your camera and lenses
Every now and then, we’ll need to clean our camera bodies and lenses. It’s time for me to clean mine too. It’s been about 3 months since I’ve really cleaned all my gear.
Before we get into the details, I have to say that I’m not confident in cleaning the sensor inside the camera body. I normally leave it to the professionals to clean it for me. I clean my lenses on the surface just to get rid of oil stains, finger prints and dusts.
Here is a couple of handy cleaning tools:
Blowers - Great for blowing dusts off lenses and sensors before wiping them with the cloth. You can get this delivered to you for free from DealExtreme.com. It’s only $5.64!! I got the exact same blower from my local camera shop for $10 bucks.
And that’s excluding my transportation costs!
If you’re using the blower to clean the insides of your camera, be sure to turn it upside down so that any dusts will fall out of the camera instead of falling into!
