cleaning camera & lens

yoursecret

My Canon Xti and EF-S 10-22mm has some condensation marks on either the censor or on/inside the lens after some shooting in the rain.
what do you use to clean censor? lens?
which professional cleaning service do you recommend?

How would a lens pen clean the inside of a lens

yoursecret

I have not tried cleaning the back of the lens with a lens pen yet. I'm not even sure where the water marks are(censor, inside lens, out side lens. I'd like to get some opinions before trying anything

Catpiano

Yoursecret, you said "ON" the lens or INSIDE the lens??

Very rare u will get water mark INSIDE the lens ..

So, try cleaning from OUTSIDE first la...

That is my every sunday afternoon job now ..  clean lens/sensor..even body ...

yoursecret

Yeah that's what I plan to do. Any advice for cleaning censor? I've never done it before since I dont change lens.

For sensor, just try to use those ball ball "BLOWER" first, ( make sure it is clean, sometimes dust INSIDE ).

You can actually SEE if there is any dust/etc on your sensor....

Sensor swap will be the last thing you want to use.

You can use sensor brush as well, but they are pricey, I just use sensor swap myself.

Even most camera come with self cleaning system now, I still do my own clean up. ^_^

Thanks, I'll have to get some sensor swap.
