It's rare you have to clean a lens that often. I only clean a lens when it gets dirty. Normally they just get a little dusty and a hand-bulb blower will blow the dust off. I've only really cleaned my SLR lenses two or three times in five years using them. And I normally don't put lens caps or filters on them, just the lens hood.is it cool to use microfiber cloth with lens cleaning solution once a week to clean the front glass?
not sure if longterm this causes any scratches on the glass over years.
I've always found that most users of lens cleaning fluid use way too much and make a mess of the lens. I use it only when needed.in terms of cleaning leica glass, i take it then most do not use a microfiber cloth and liquid cleaner, just compressed air or hand blower?
just wondering because in the past when i used a liquid cleaner on the frontal glass it would sometimes leave streaks on the lens so i guess it defeats the purpose.
