Hello everyone! I have seen lots of questions here on lockergnome.net, but didn't found nice answer on my question, so here we go: I have this camera. Yesterday I was shooting video and some pics and when I watched it on my laptop, there was a huge smudge on the video. I thought it might be from my laptop so, I watched it on my perfectly clean desktop screen. It was still there! I turned on my camera and when I looked deeper into the lens, I saw dust and smudges, a lot of them. I watched video on youtube, but found only tips for SLR and DSLR. So please if someone know how to get it clean please respond. P.S. the first thing I did to the problem is using a Q-tip and a deep breath, to clean it and I ended up smudging even more. |

I would get some lens cleaner or 50% rubbing alcohol and 50% water. I would also use a q-tip to wipe it off gently, I would also recommend a little dust removal pump to remove the dust. i have to mix water and rubbing alcohol???!!!! also I don't know if my camera lens are sealed tech cleaner solution are basically half rubbing alcohol and water, also you only need it on the front of the lens (the exposed side ) but i didn't understand, do i have to mix them?? yeah, just mix it in a cup. Also, most rubbing alcohol is around 70%, so don't have to add exactly half water, just some less then alcohol so basically: i mix it in a cup, i put some on the point of a Q-tip, rub of smudges and i will be good to go. right? correct but gently rub it on the lens keep in mind that every time you clean, you are removing some of the special coatings which are sprayed onto the lens in the factory, this will cause a reduction in image quality over time so try to avoid having to clean the lens as much as possible. I have seen this problem many times

Get a lens pen -- http://www.lenspen.com/409/64/ If there's dust on the CCD/CMOS (digital camera sensor), be VERY careful and consult the user's manual. More information: |
