[QUOTE="Eyelight, post: 387331, member: 24753"] Ditto on the wet clean ideas (or should I say Plus One). Nikon manuals actually say: Clean lens surfaces with a blower brush. To remove dirt and smudges, use a soft, clean cotton cloth or lens tissue moistened with ethanol (alcohol) or lens cleaner. Wipe in a circular motion from the center to the outer edge, taking care not to leave traces or touch other parts of the lens. I don't know why they spell out ethanol instead of just saying alcohol, unless the idea is to drink it so you don't give a %$#@ about the dirty lens anymore. Not all ethanol is created equal, so probably better to use a recommended lens cleaning solution or wipes specific to lens cleaning. [/QUOTE]
