Frequently asked questions

What is the safest way to clean a DSLR lens without causing damage?
The safest way to clean a DSLR lens is to use a blower to remove dust, followed by a microfibre cloth dampened with lens cleaning fluid. Gently wipe in a circular motion, avoiding excessive pressure. Never use tissues or abrasive materials, as they can scratch the lens surface and compromise its clarity.

Can I use regular household cleaning products to clean my lens?
No, regular household cleaning products should not be used on your lens. These products often contain harsh chemicals that can damage the lens coating or leave streaks. Instead, use cleaning solutions specifically designed for camera lenses to ensure safe and effective cleaning.

How do I know when my lens needs professional cleaning?
Your lens may need professional cleaning if it has stubborn smudges, mould, or internal dust particles that you cannot remove with standard cleaning tools. If you notice reduced image quality, such as persistent blurriness or hazy spots, it is a sign that professional cleaning is required to restore optimal performance.
