【please note】

You can also use canned air duster instead of a blower.

Some of those canned air dusters emit small water droplets.

Avoid this type when cleaning lenses and filters.

～Procedure～

（1）Use a blower to blow away coarse dust from the lens and filter surfaces.

【please note】

If you wipe with dust still attached, it may damage the lens surface or damage the lens surface.

The coating may peel off. Please blow it away enough.

 

 

 

（2) Wrap lens cleaning paper around a chopstick, etc.

【please note】

You can use tweezers instead, but the paper will tear and the metal will come into direct contact with the lens, damaging the lens surface or peeling off the coating on the lens surface.

Avoid using metal tweezers or the type with sharp tips.

 

 

 

（3）Add a few drops of cleaning solution to the wrapped cleaning paper to dampen it.

 

（4）Wipe the lens surface.

At this time, there are two methods: wiping radially from the center to the periphery, and wiping in a spiral pattern from the center to the periphery. Please use them depending on the direction of the dirt.

【Please note】

Please wipe it gently at this time. If you wipe too hard, the coating on the lens surface may peel off.

 

 

 

 

（5）Wipe dry if there are any remaining water droplets.

【please note】

Please wipe it gently at this time. If you wipe too hard, the coating on the lens surface may peel off.
