Sweat, dirt from surroundings, and other reasons causes accumulation of dirt on the camera body. To clean this, first take off the rubber eye cap and clean the viewfinder and LCD.

Isn’t it always wise to use be safe than to be sorry? Remember that cameras straps are there for a reason.

If you have an interchangeable lens camera, you would probably have to keep changing the lens as and when a need arises.

To avoid this, always keep the lens mounted on the camera. Or keep it in the chamber of the camera bag specifically denoted for lens to protect it. If you keep the lens facing down in the bag with the cap on it, chances are high that sensor is in very safe hands.
