I left as much of the dust in the corners as I could, but cleaned up the center of the lens and viewfinder. It was pretty dirty and still is so I'm not sure how long it will be before I have to take it apart again for another cleaning.

It looks just like the dust, hair, scratches that I spend hours trying to "clean" off the old scanned pictures and slides from childhood. Of course that's just my opinion and I'm an unskilled photographer. :) I really like the framing quality and the aged look the lens gives around the edges of the photos, but I really hate the speckling all over the whole picture, especially on the people.
