I've always gone the whole deal with brushing the dust off followed by wet lens paper etc but I've gotten to appreciate modern conveniences such as lens-pens and microfiber cloths that seem to be able to be used with modern multi-coated lenses with impunity. Any tips? Also can anyone point me to a site where they discuss the relative merits/demerits of various vintage Leica lenses? -- Thanks, Tom Irving Professor of Biology and Physics, Director Biophysics Collaborative Access Team (BioCAT) Director Center for Synchrotron Radiation Research and Instrumentation (CSRRI) Dept.
