SO far I am pleased with the G3 but after my Tibet trip, I notice there was a small kinda hair stuck between the lenses in my G3, I have used a hair dryer to blow into the gaps of the lenses and the hair is still stuck in between the lenses causing some slight distortion in my pics, can anyone help?????
Any manuals that can show me how to dismantle it to wipe the lens, I have tried dismantling it but can't get near to the lenses!!!!

well best advice is to if still under warranty to send it in. lense could be damaged if wiped with certain things and by opening the camera could void the warranty if you have it. if you out of warranty then maybe i would but if cost to get it done at authorized canon dealer then they know and have all manuals to do it properly. you could try to get like one of those lense pens with a blower attached but that wount go into the camera though. good luck. ive read a few posts about people having things inside the lense which find odd how they get in their the first place.

Don't dismantle anything, especially the lens system. It's not like old manual focus lenses. As suggested, warranty or authorized service centers would be your best bet. Post some photos of how exactly this is causing distortions?
