Lens Care Lens Care
• Removing dust is normally suffi cient to clean the glass surfaces of the lens.
•
The fl uorine-coated front lens element can be cleaned as described below.
-
Smudges, fi ngerprints, and other oily stains can be removed using a
soft, clean cotton cloth or lens cleaning tissue; clean from the center
outwards using a circular motion.
-
To remove stubborn stains, wipe gently using a soft cloth lightly
dampened with a small amount of distilled water, ethanol, or lens
cleaner.
-
Any drop-shaped marks left from this process on the water- and oil-
repellent surface can subsequently be removed with a dry cloth.
• When cleaning the rear lens element, which is not fl uorine-coated , remove
smudges, fi ngerprints, and other oily stains using a soft, clean cotton
cloth or lens cleaning tissue lightly dampened with a small amount
of ethanol or lens cleaner. Wipe gently from the center outwards in a
circular motion, taking care not to leave smears or touch the lens with
your fi ngers.
• Never use organic solvents such as paint thinner or benzene to clean
the lens.
• Neutral Color (NC) fi lters (available separately) and the like can be used
to protect the front lens element. Remove the lens hood before at-
taching or removing fi lters.
• If the lens will not be used for an extended period, store it in a cool,
dry location to prevent mold and rust. Do not store in direct sunlight
or with naphtha or camphor moth balls.
