How do you clean digital camera lens?
My little niece found my digital camera and put her greasy little fingers all over including the lens….! You can see her little finger print.
STOP! DO NOT use regular glass cleaner, it can damage the anti-reflective coating on your lens!
Get a lens cleaning kit from most any camera store, electronics store, or even some drugstores with photo services. Eyeglass cleaner, if specifically designated for glasses with antireflective coatings, can also work, but DO NOT use Windex or other ordinary glass cleaners!

I’ll assume you don’t have a lens cleaning kit fom a camera store:
— Blow on the lens to get grit off
— Put a bit of glass cleaner on the corner of a paper towel
— Gently clean the smudge off
— If there’s lint blow it off

I agree with Brent- cleaning it will have nothing but bad news if you use glass cleaner. Besides…a cleaning kit is $9 usually…a new camera…a lot more than that.

use smooth cloth and buy the cleanser kit to avoid it happen again.
