The question was a good and interesting one.
Most of the silent majority out here are to busy getting on with our lives to get to deeply involved with research and look for quick advice.
If someone is not prepared to help another person with an issue they have replied to before then keep quiet and let someone else reply.

To me, posting a question on UHH and getting an answer directly relating to the question from members here, is better than doing a search.
I just did a search on the original question: " 1 cleaning lenses 2 drying lenses:" and Google gave over 15,000,000 pages, many having nothing to do with photography.

I know it can happen like you used to occasionally blow out the inside of the film cameras but I do think people worry too much these days, one small spot and they risk killing the sensor by damaging it.

But I am NOT alone in thinking that if the same question comes up again and again and again and has been answered soooooooo many times why can people not look first

nice one! you're so helpful. maybe you should go into teaching...young kids would be good for you-when they ask 'what does something mean?' you could just tell them to use the dictionary. so many dickheads make unnecessary comments on this site
Shiraz I think your diatride should have been written "into teaching....Lazy young kids who are use to having someone wipe their nose and arse" Since you've joined That subject has been broached a dozen times. Where were you? We follow this Forum to learn and help not to serve lazy twits.

I had my Leica's serviced every year as I was being paid for my work I wanted to give my clients the best product I could without excuses (I am talking about the years 1967 through 1985).

I had Midwest Camera do a cleaning. Sensor, Focus Screen and Mirror. Got the camera back and not a speck of dirt. $65 while I waited. About 30 minutes. Considering the risk of damage and the cost of a repair, I decided to have the cleaning professionally done.

does anyone have any advice or tips on the following cleaning areas: 1 cleaning lenses 2 drying lenses: i live in a humid region and often when i take a lense out of its case it 'foggs up' and because of the humidity, is very hard to dry. 3 cleaning the sensor. cleaning gear is something i should do more often but it is usually 'forgotten' in the enthusiasm to get out and take photos...

I'm relatively new to this site. I've been reading replies to questions now for about a month. As an amateur and as someone who retired not so long ago, I thought I'd pursue my love of photography now that I have time. Although I've looked forward to reading daily posts from this site, I've definitely been scared away from asking questions after reading this latest squabble. I'm sure just about every photography-related question has been asked! What's so wrong with having it answered again. Maybe someone new to the site will have a different or better perspective. Heck, why have the site at all if you can find it elsewhere on the net, in magazines, at the library, etc.?
