Maxwell Render | Official public forum

I got thrown into the 'photo guy' position at work after our other guy quit and he took the cleaning stuff with him! So, I am asking you all what the heck do I need to purchase to clean the lens and the camera body with?

The camera is Nikon D2xs and it's got 2 monster lenses, not sure what kind they are

So, here we go learning a whole new side of things.

This will help you with Maxwell, as a side effect!

Fine grit sandpaper?

Just kidding, don't do it, newbie.

First thing you will need is a Rocket Blower which is used to blow dust out of the camera body. For cleaning lenses I personally have some Kodak lens tissue paper and cleaning solution but lots of companies have different stuff. A good microfiber cloth, the kind that comes with nicer sunglasses will work too to clean the glass

We use a microfiber cloth, and those blowing-air can

If it can't be fix with those tools, then the camera is sent to be clean professionally

You never want to clean your sensor with an air can...There is way to much velocity and it can damage the sensor

That is why we don't clean the sensor... only the lenses we sent them away for the sensor

This is pretty amazing, just got one.

Interesting, thanks Ricardo.
