how to check whether the lens is oily or not ?

my friends touched the lens's glass.

i just use those cloth that i used to clean my glasses to clean it.

and i keep my new dslr in a safe with hippo. is it ok to do so?

the safe is in air-con room.

check lens by visual. use a torch light to shine on the lens or face against the light... is like spectacles glasses loh..  tongue.gif
I use microfiber cloth.. or my spectacles cloth.. just careful no particles on the cloth after get scratches  shakehead.gif

i'm presuming your safe is air-tight? if yes.. then better open up everyday to let some air circulate.. note if it's too dry you will damage your rubbers (grip, lens dials).. best to get a hygrometer... or even better.. follow my DIY Drybox  thumbup.gif

do i need to detach the lens to check whether the lens is oily or not ?
