How do you clean the lens on GRD1? It's quite small and awkward to get at with a cloth, and I have a few small spots on it now.
I've been using a blower brush, but it needs something a bit better this time.
Yep, the same for me. The LensPen is probably the best lens cleaning solution for cameras like GRD/GXR. We discussed it in details for example here: viewtopic.php?f=53&t=5592
Do you see any IQ degradation? Lens has to be REALLY dirty to start seeing effect on image.
btw most of times lenses get scrathed during cleaning attempts...
I clean up fingerprints as they can affect coating but don't worry much about dust and other particles stuck to glass. What can be blown away with air, goes off but rest waits until lens drops a stop or two in speed
I haven't noticed anything on the pictures, I just don't like the idea of spots on the lens.
I'll try and find a mini Lenspen somewhere then.
Thanks for the replies everyone.
