Lesson 07: Camera care

Lens Care

• Put on the lens cap when the camera is not in use. Prevent dust from settling on the lens.
• Do not touch the lens. Grease marks from fingers take a lot of effort to remove from the lens.
• Clean the camera lens case periodically using a lens cleaning liquid and chamois leather piece. Lens cleaning kits are available in the mar­ket. Clean the lens before a shoot.
• Make sure there are absolutely no stains on the lens or filters after you clean them.
• Use a UV filter to protect the lens.
• If you have lens filters, keep them in their cases when not in use.
• Do not keep lens attachments near sources of heat.
• Take care not to damage screw threads when attaching additional lenses/filters.
