hi guys
sorry if this has been posted before, but i'm looking to have some contact with people while asking these questions. i read online a lot about this stuff but really couldn't find any personal experience from actual photographers, so here goes:
basically, i'm looking for a 'wet' cleaning method for my lenses. i didn't have a good experience with the Lenspen, so I'm looking for alternatives. I currently have a giottos rocket blower and soft brush - perfect to get the dust etc. off the glass. but if there are any smudges/fingerprints etc. what would be the best way to clean this off?
i'm looking at specific brands of cleaning products, not coz i'm a brand freak but coz i know that if someone recommends Brand A, i can have at least some trust in that brand
i read about the Zeiss pre-moistened wipes. mixed reviews. some say its great, some say its not so great - leaves behind residue etc.
the other option is cleaning tissue and cleaning fluid. i'd like to avoid microfibre clothes as its rather hard to keep the cloth clean, and this has always caused trouble for me
what would your advise be? zeiss wet wipes? zeiss fluid and some other (brand?) tissue?
thanks guys!
and woah, clubsnap has gone all iOS 7 - couldn't recognize it for a moment - i hope it doesn't turn buggy too hahaha
