    The forum will be moving to a new domain in the near future (canonrumorsforum.com). I have turned off "read-only", but I will only leave the two forum nodes you see active for the time being.

    I don't know at this time how quickly the change will happen, but that will move at a good pace I am sure.

Hey gang,

Any tips for cleaning a rear element of a lens that is recessed a good distance from the mount?

I clumsily got a thumbprint on the rear element of my 100L. It's a good 10mm recessed or so and that recession is 'felted'/textured like the inside of a hood, so it grabs at cleaning cloths as I go -- getting to the periphery of that rear element is a bit tricky as a result. Is there was a better cleaning play than my typical microfiber + ROR solution? Is there any tips or tricks to share? Perhaps use a finer pressure tool behind the microfiber than my finger, perhaps a Q-tip or something?

Thx,
A
