Re: [Paddlewise] RFI Opinion on waterproof camera

I have a Pentax WR105 because of the zoom (wildlife) and flash (sea caves)
capabilities. Have found that water droplets don't show up in the photos,
but dried salt on the lens does. I try to dip the camera in water before
shots to wash it away.  Unfortunatly means have salt on the lens again when
this water dries.  Would a chemois or similar suggested by Tim
Boat'n in the Ozarks in a previous post scratch the lens if used dry?

Cheers
Grant
