There are loads of different suggestions on picking the right CCTV camera system, but what about after that? It’s all good having a system that surveys the area but if the lens isn’t clean then your footage may not be as clear as you would want it. We recommend cleaning to be done regularly to avoid distortion in your footage.
Before you do anything else, make sure to switch off the system before cleaning. This is just in case the camera moves whilst cleaning. Get a can of compressed air to blow into the camera lens. This will help remove any loose debris which may be on the surface of the lens. Then use a microfiber cloth to gently wipe the camera lens. These cloths can be found in most electrical stores. Purchase some lens cleaner solution also. If you don’t want to spend money on solution then you can use your breath! The moisture should help remove most blemishes on the lens.
