Ok my Chem Bro :D The first thing I learned from using the 100 macro was... every little tiny small thing in the object we photograph with a macro lens will show :evil:

So what I do is make sure it's perfectly clear/clean. In most cases that's not good enough :cry:

yeah you'l;l always get dust and stuff on them....especially in the little nooks and crannys that are almost impossible to clean............ i gave mine a wipe but that was it :).... i wear it all the time and don't like to take it off my wrist for too long......... even the time it took me to snap the shot was too long :lol:

another thing i noticed , if you are using a flash then dust that you didn't even see becomes visible when you shoot with a macro lens, i suppose i could haveput mine in the basin and washed it in a soap solution.... maybe tomorrow when i have time i'll try and do a cleaner shot :)

The lumibrite watch when charged with sunlight or a desk lamp stays bright for about an hour or so so its not radioactive ( i think)

A good example on the dust issue...I didn't even notice it until post production of the shots...
