10. Lens care
• Clean the 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 center to outer edge, taking care not to leave
traces or touch other parts of the lens.
• Never use thinner or benzene to clean the lens as this might damage it, result in a
fire, or cause health problems.
• To protect the front lens element, an NC filter is available. A lens hood 1 also helps
protect the front of the lens.
• When storing the lens in its lens case, attach both front and rear caps.
• When the lens will not be used for a long time, store it in a cool, dry place to
prevent mold. Also store the lens away from direct sunlight or chemicals such as
camphor or naphthalene.
• Do not get water on the lens or drop it in water as this will cause it to rust and
malfunction.
• Reinforced plastic is used for certain parts of the lens. To avoid damage, never leave
the lens in an excessively hot place.
