#photography nerditry:

Dust is the enemy, especially on digital sensors. Prevention is easier than cleaning.

  • I keep lens and body caps on until the last possible moment, and use a filtered blower bulb as the last step whenever the sensor or rear lens element is exposed. Always.

  • Cleaning lenses: first use a blower bulb. If that fails, Pancro cleaner with Kimwipes, in a circular motion.

  • Sensors: First step is the blower bulb. If that fails, VisibleDust solution with their swap sticks.
