my lenes in my bag are getting white marks from rubbing each other in my bag.

 

dont want to get a bigger bag so (2) of my lens will always touch in my bag.

 

any suggestions to stop white marks or just live with them?

 

(i dont want to go bigger then the artisan 7100 i already have but it would be nice if the inside was a touch bigger)

 

thanks

I just wrap one in a microfiber small cloth and it is enuff to keep them from rubbing.

I glued 2 spare rear lens caps together (or use tape) so 2 lenses are one unit in the bag

I was quite disappointed with this myself recently. I've not owned the gear long, I am super fastidious and anal about the care of my gear, yet my Noctilux has 2 pin prick sized chips in the paint. I have no idea how they got there. I handle my gear extremely carefully.

 

For me, it's disappointing.

Keep them in old socks.

I think mine have appeared in use rather than in the bag as I keep my lenses within their leather pouches whilst inside the bag.

 

The truth is, unfortunately, in use the lenses paint appears to mark quite easily.
