Proper Care of your Camera
Moisture
and
dust
are
harmful
to
your
camera.
It
should
be
taken
out
into
the
light and fresh air from time to time.
If your camera is to be stored for a long time, it should be removed from its case.
Silica gel or another drying agent should be placed alongside it.
When you use your camera on a rainy day, or at the beach, moisture and salt air
adhere to it, which can result in stains, rust, and corrosion.
Use a soft brush to rid the body of dust and a dry, soft cloth for wiping. Do not
touch the lens. Use a bellows to blow away dust on the lens or brush lightly with
a brush. If you should inadvertently get a fingerprint on your lens and a bellows or
brush does not remove it, follow this procedure:
use a little pure alcohol or
ether,
if
available,
on
special
lens
tissue.
Then
wrap
the
tissue
around
a
wooden
matchstick and wipe the lens in a circular motion ... lightly and systematically.
