Digital and film cameras contain lenses, which when brought into contact with dust, fingers, rain and other elements, can become dirty and impair the ability of the camera to take the highest quality photos possible. Lens cleaning kits are commercially available and contain cloths, wipes, air blowers and cleaning fluid with which to keep camera lenses clean. A photographer can assemble a kit him or herself out of these objects.
