How to save a long-term unused SLR camera?

Depending on the value of your camera and the number of accessories, if there is only one camera body and one lens, it is recommended not to disassemble it. Every time it is disassembled, there is the possibility of dust, which can reduce dust and avoid interface wear.

There are several points to note about storage:

1, it must be cleaned first, and the dust and sweat stains on the lens surface of the fuselage should be wiped clean.

2. Take out the battery and memory card and install the lens cover.

3. moistureproof. If you only have a camera and a mirror, put it in a sealed camera bag and use a desiccant (color-changing silica gel) to absorb water. If you have a lot of equipment, you'd better buy a drying oven with humidity control. Electronic equipment needs good moisture-proof performance, but it is not good if it is too dry. The rubber part of the SLR camera will crack due to drying, and the adhesive will lose its viscosity due to water loss. The optimum storage humidity of SLR cameras is 40%-55%.

4. For a long time, it is best to take a few shots every month for SLR cameras to make the components in the camera move normally, and the battery can also be charged and discharged to enhance the ionic activity in the battery.
