How to use the camera cleaning kit?

for friends who like photography, camera maintenance is also very important. Proper maintenance can make digital cameras and lenses have a longer service life, but many novices only know how to take pictures with cameras, but they don't know how to maintain them in daily life. Today, I will introduce several camera maintenance guides to you. I hope it can help you when you are maintaining your camera.

1. Guide to camera maintenance

1. Don't use clothes to wipe the lens

Many users habitually use their shirts or T-shirts to wipe the lens when taking pictures, which is actually a very bad habit. On the one hand, sweat and stains on clothes will corrode the lens coating, and secondly, thicker fibers may scratch the lens. Similarly, ordinary paper towels are not suitable for wiping the lens. The best lens cleaning tools are a series of special tools such as lens paper, lens pen or balloon blowing.

2. Cover the lens cover at any time

As we all know, the lens is a very delicate thing, especially the coating on the surface. If you want to effectively avoid scratches, dust, liquid, etc., you'd better get into the good habit of covering the lens cover at all times. Some careless users can also buy a high-quality UV mirror, which will not affect the shooting effect, but also provide a layer of insurance for the lens.

3. Use the camera shoulder strap

The camera shoulder strap can effectively prevent the camera from being damaged, especially for those large digital SLR cameras. If you don't like shoulder straps, you can also try a special wristband like CaptureCameraClip.

4. Do not disassemble the memory card at will

Do not disassemble the memory card when writing data. Under normal circumstances, with the use of high-speed continuous shooting and other functions, it takes a long time to write data into the memory card, and forced disassembly will lead to data damage.

5. Don't overexpose the camera sensor

For digital SLR and micro-camera, the feature of interchangeable lens allows users to directly contact the camera sensor, but the problem is that the sensor is like a magnet, which is very easy to be contaminated with dust. Therefore, the action when changing the lens must be rapid to avoid the camera sensor being exposed for a long time.

6. Hold the camera in the right posture

Usually, we hold the camera handle with our right hand and hold the lens with our left hand, which can stabilize the camera and operate the lens ring conveniently. In addition, it is necessary to use tripod properly.

7. Use the battery carefully

If you don't use electromagnetism for a long time, it is recommended to charge the lithium battery at intervals to ensure better battery activity. If your camera uses AA alkaline battery, be sure to take it out before it is left idle for a long time, because it may be deformed and seeped, damaging the camera interior.

8. Carry your camera bag when you go out

It is best to put it in your camera bag when you go out, so as to avoid the camera from being damaged due to unexpected situations. There are plenty of camera bags to choose from in the market, and users can choose according to their own needs and budgets.

Second, how to use

in the camera cleaning kit to deal with the stains on the lens: take a little cotton, dip it in the lens water, make it wet, and carefully stick off the stains left on the lens.

to deal with the dust on the lens: blow off the dust with a balloon first, and carefully remove the dust with lens paper if it can't be blown off. Be careful and don't use force.

3. Use lens paper to clean the lens. Step

1. Make sure that there are no visible dust particles on the surface before wiping in a large area. Dip the absorbent cotton ball into the lens water, dry it a little after soaking, and wipe the mirror in a spiral shape from the center of the lens, not back and forth.

2. When the surface of the lens is not dry, gently wipe the mirror with a dry cotton ball in the same way. If the first effect is not satisfactory, you can try it again, but don't use the used cotton ball again. If you are still not satisfied with the water stains left on the lens, you can use anhydrous alcohol for the final treatment, because anhydrous alcohol has a good effect of removing water stains.

3. Pay attention to the technique when wiping, and use light and even force. You can practice with the old UV mirror. However, no matter how careful and careful you are, wiping will always damage the coating on the lens surface, so never wipe the lens easily unless you have to.

that's about the camera maintenance guide and how to use the camera cleaning kit. I hope it will be helpful to everyone!
