Whenever somebody holds my P800 I find a big fat finger print in the middle of the camera, if I warn then about it before handing it over they will still do it unintentionally.
Don't you guys think that the P800 should have had a protective shutter?
How do you guys suggest I clean my camera lens? And how do I avoid people putting their fingers in the camera.

I've never had that bad a problem with other people handling my phone.

I use a cotton swab to clean the lens.

Actually it's an idea,
I just thought about making a circular shaped crock like plastic piece that covers the camera and extends under the battery cover. It also should have a sideways joint so it can be moved away to take pictures

also I tried cotton swabs but they seem to leave a trace of dust and flufy white threads. At least most times

I use my oakley pouch bag to clean the lense. How? Think like a McGuyver.

bit of kebab breath and a cotton bud should do the trick!

@ parvski
So that oils it all up and magically makes the finger prints invisible
Wow that really is mind boggling
