When changing focus screens, NEVER blow on them with your breath. Fine
dots
of saliva will very likely land on the screen. Have dry source of
compressed or canned air available. DO NOT rub or wash screen with
anything. Have new screen exposed to air for the shortest time possible
before dropping it into the camera. Use a bids feather to whisk off
pesky
dust.

| Hi everybody:
|
| Let's have a little of Oly Sesame Street. Just a few tips for us
| beginners:
|
| - How do you recommend to clean lenses? I know it's better not to get
| them dirty, but imagine you get one of the usual eb@y beauties from a
| careless owner.
|
| - How about the viewfinder? I mean completely around the edges and
| so. What about the camera inside (mirror, focusing screen, etc...) I
| am asuming these are not every day operations but no alternative sort
| of things.
|
| - How do you change a focusing screen without causing some permanent
| damage? Any special care should be taken?
|
| I am quite aware that these questions have been asked a few times,
| but I have been around for a while and I don't seem to recall these
| issues. I know I should go to the archives, but those are quite dense
| to explore.
|
| Cheers
