Complete (if old) beginner and still awaiting SD card to make a start, so that new.
Camera is a used 1000D in excellent condition and will be my learning camera, may well be all I need we will see.
So I will need to clean the lens at some point, I found a kit with spray bottle (empty) and the usual bits.
Question is what fluid should I put in the empty bottle, or should I just buy a full one known maker.
Either way are there solutions to avoid or others that are regularly used ? Just don't want my first act to be to mess up the lens. Any help appreciated, I just want to have something to hand in case I need it.
Solved! Go to Solution.

The cloths should last a while. As to if they can be washed, that would depend upon the manufacturer.
Regarding cleaning of the sensor, I would only want Canon to handle that. Others here may provide advice on if attempting to do it yourself.

I said sorry to the community, best I can do.
No idea where that bit is I just looked at About our Community and just saw a few posts. Looking close I now see the bit on the right that says 'getting started' so can have a proper read. I see it now in the middle of Community Guidelines.
I would have just not risked it if I had seen it but such is life. I know, and it is pretty clear to me now I have found it. Thanks for clarifying.
