2. Best Microfiber Cleaning Cloth for DSLR and Mirrorless Cameras

When cleaning delicate lenses or filters, use a dry, lint-free microfiber cloth. Avoid harsh sprays or alcohol-based cleaners, which can damage coatings. Always start from the centre and wipe outwards in gentle circles for the best optical results.

3. How to Choose the Right Lens Cleaning Cloth

When selecting the right cloth for your photography kit, consider:

• Material quality: Look for tight, split-fibre microfibre.
• Size: Larger cloths are easier to handle and cover more surface area.
• Reusability: Washable cloths are better for long-term use.
• Packaging: A resealable pouch keeps your cloth clean between shoots.

4. Expert Lens Care Tips for 2026

Always keep a dedicated cloth in your camera bag and another in your editing suite. For maximum protection, store your cloth in a sealed bag to prevent dust transfer.
