Lens maintenance

Remove loose dust with a blower or soft brush before using microfiber and lens fluid.

Core principle

Remove loose dust with a blower or soft brush before using microfiber and lens fluid.

Practical workflow

Do not pour fluid directly onto glass. Inspect contacts, mount, rings and signs of moisture.

1. Define the image goal and working conditions.
2. Choose baseline settings and make a test frame.
3. Check focus, histogram and critical image areas.
4. Record the settings that worked and why you changed them.

What to verify before finishing

Store equipment at moderate humidity and never leave a wet kit sealed in a bag.

Do not treat a single rule as a guarantee. Conditions, equipment design and output size change the requirements. Record settings and conclusions in the AparatTo planner.
