So, wiping it on my T-shirt isn't the answer then? :shock: :D :D A well washed 100% cotton T-Shirt is fine as long as it hasn't been near sand :idea: Probably better at mopping up the gunge than lens tissue etc. Vodka is supposed to be quite good 40% ethanol and distilled water :shock: and it ca...

Lens Cleaning
Threads have a tendency to get silly when there's nothing sensible left to say. As for cleaning lenses, the glass surfaces that is, I always use a microfibre cloth and very rarely need lens cleaner of any type.

[quote:3496ace15f="johnriley"]Threads have a tendency to get silly when there's nothing sensible left to say. quote] Quite right, John, but I think we do need to ask the suppliers as to whether Eclipse/Eclipse 2 IS suitable for cleaning lens surfaces - I will be job-hunting (just been made redund...

AS for Eclipse Fluid, just Google it and all the answers are there. They claim it is for lenses and give instructions - that is, apply to a cloth and not directly to the lens. I have indeed got some Pentax microfibre cloths, so ChrisA you need not feel disappointed! :)

2x lens converter info please
The main problem I have with the Bigma is that it won't lock focus at 500mm. The bulk doesn't bother me too much aside from the fact that trying to hold it steady and focus manually is a bit of a tall order and I generally find a tripod handy. Not a camera fault as both bodies tested are fine wi...

Infinity focus on 18-135
Unsurprisingly when pointed at a boring sky or blank wall mine doesn't focus at infinity. I know it focuses at infinity when used in the great wide open with enough contrast for the AF. Just out of interest I tried the 17-70 too and that of course also didn't focus on blankness either. As I ...

Infinity focus on 18-135
I suspect that the more expensive AF lenses have an "exact" infinity stop while the cheaper models don't. I know I cleaned some fungus from the front of an old F 80-200mm a while ago which had a lot of play between the marked infinity and the actual end stop. Made it interesting trying to set in...
