Cleaning the Camera

TIP: If your camera needs cleaning beyond what is described in this section, take the camera to a camera store that specializes in cleaning digital cameras.

Cleaning your camera not only keeps it looking its best, it also improves the quality of your photos. It is especially important to clean the lens regularly because dust particles and fingerprints can mar the quality of any photos you take.

To clean your camera, you will need lens-cleaning tissue and a soft, dry, lint-free cloth commonly available at photo- specialty stores. You can also purchase these items in a camera-cleaning kit.

NOTE: You should purchase lens-cleaning tissue that has not been chemically treated. Some chemically treated lens tissue can cause scratching of the lens and Image Display.
