#photography nerditry:
Dust is the enemy, especially on digital sensors. Prevention is easier than cleaning.

I keep lens and body caps on until the last possible moment, and use a filtered blower bulb as the last step whenever the sensor or rear lens element is exposed. Always.

Cleaning lenses: first use a blower bulb. If that fails, Pancro cleaner with Kimwipes, in a circular motion.
-
Sensors: First step is the blower bulb. If that fails, VisibleDust solution with their swap sticks.
@stshank@mstdn.social also the auto-vibrate feature is very effective, if your camera has it.
