HOW TO KEEP YOUR CAMERA CLEAN...
To remove sand or dust from the outside of your camera you need a powerful puff of air - a Hurricane/Rocket blower is ideal for this. To clean glass surfaces such as the lens, LCD screen, viewfinder and the front of the flash we suggest a microfibre cloth (they re re-washable) and photographic cleaning fluid such as Kinetronics fluid. Alternativley, use the appropriate* LensPen with its activated carbon chamois tip. (*different shapes and sizes available)
Photographing in the fog? Carry a chamois cloth to dry off your camera.
All items in bold are available from our store :-)

DLSR OWNERS: HOW TO KEEP YOUR SENSOR CLEAN...
When changing lenses, hold your camera with the body facing sideways or downwards so dust doesn't fall into the camera. Spots on your images? You probably have dust on your sensor. First try blowing with a rocket blower.
Spots still there? Clean the sensor low-pass filter using a "dry method" such as LensPen Sensor Cleaner or DustAid - you must lock up your mirror & shutter before attempting this (see instruction manual).
That didn't work? You must have a more stubborn mark that requires a "wet cleaner" or a camera technician.
We have a variety of sensor cleaning solutions - come in and talk to us.
