- Gently wipe the lens surface in a circular motion, starting from the center and moving towards the edges.
- If stubborn smudges or fingerprints persist, use a lens pen or a lens cleaning brush with a soft bristle to carefully clean the affected areas.
- Avoid applying excessive pressure to prevent scratching the lens surface.

Cleaning the camera sensor requires extra caution. Refer to your camera manual for specific instructions. لكن, if you are confident in performing this task, follow these general guidelines:
- Ensure your camera battery is fully charged.
- Set the camera to the manual sensor cleaning mode (or mirror lock-up mode).
- Use a rocket blower to remove loose dust particles from the sensor.
- If stubborn dust spots remain, use a sensor cleaning kit according to the manufacturer’s instructions.
- Take a test shot to ensure the sensor is clean and functioning properly.
