Cleaning Lenses

bl0ck · 2009-03-08 08:30:58

My nephew kicked a football at me as I was taking a shot. The ball has left a dirt smudge on the screen of the lens. Any advice on best way to clean it. I bought the lens solution and cloths/cotton buds to clean but not sure which to use first? Appreciate any advice

We're talking the front lens here, right? Really not as big a deal as you're making out. Any soft cloth will do, I frequently use the cloth from my glasses case. Just be gentle. If there's actual dirt on it, dry to lift that off carefully first or you'll grind the bits into the glass.

When you say "screen", what do you mean?

If it's the UV Filter on the front of the lens then you can take it off the lens & wash it clean then dry it with a lint free cloth.
