with the camera except in the cases of movies and of pictures recorded with Multi-shot 16

Lens
Avoid touching the lens/projector window with your fingers. Remove dust or
lint with a blower (typically a small device with a rubber bulb attached to one
end that is pumped to produce a stream of air out the other end). To remove
fingerprints or other stains that cannot be removed with a blower, wipe the
lens/projector window with a soft cloth, using a spiral motion that starts at the
center of them and working toward the edges. If this fails, clean them using a
cloth lightly dampened with commercial lens cleaner.
