dust question

[ep82]

Hello everyone.

Very quick Q about dust. What do you use to remove some dust that just sits on the glass of the lens? I use a blower type thing but some of the dust sticks on pretty well.

so was wondering what do you experts use to remove them without scratching the lens.

well I am no expert but... i sent my kids up town to visit all the opticians and get me loads of free lens cloths

A bigger blower?

Ah cool. thanks for the answers

I was thinking in getting some of those cloths but didnt know if they would scratch the lens or not. I will get some now

before you scrub your lens with any cloth, make sure there is no debris on the lens like grit or anything hard.
