I got crap load of lints on #2 and #5. I'm able to blow + brush off everything from #2 pretty easy, but I can't seem to reach up to #5. Is there any special tool I can buy from camera store to get rid of the lints form the focusing screen?




Thanks.

try is to get a blow brush. you can squeeze the end to blow the particles off of 5 and brush off the ones off of 2

Yea I tried blowing it but it just wouldn't come out... My friend said use chicken cloth, I have no idea wtf that is.. I might just need to visit a camera shop and have'em check it out or something..

Cheese cloth. You can find it at a grocery store, in the little "kitchen gadgets" area. Probably at any hardware store, Home Depot, etc. It's pretty easy to find. It looks like giant wide gauze, and it's lint-free.
most camera stores sell a cleaning kit that will have everything you need to clean it.

Goto a camera store...or have a pro clean it cause if you mess up the mirror's placement or scratch the screen...the camera would be pretty much messed up and paying to fix that problem is alot trust me...I'm a Photographer...i do this for a living...get it done by a pro...spend the money dont be cheap on an SLR
