Nice capture... the background is OK to me.
For anyone that doesn't already know the black markings on
a male sparrows chest indicate rank.... similar to
sergeants stripes

Super set! I can't help noticing that you get very
close to all the "Dolly Birds"

Good idea.... but it wasn't me

I use the 5x magnifier hood off my Bronica S2A 6x6 camera to look at previews to check exposure, focus etc. The same as this linkIt's not fixed and I hold it about 5mm away from the camera so that I don't scratch anything. A SH one would cost about £30 - £100 and they are of decent optical quality. Other 6x6 cameras would have had them as well. I suppose just the magnifier off a Lubitel would work fixed to a cardboard box.

Never heard of the problem with the K-r and your photo looks
like just a dirty sensor. Should clean off easily if that's
the case.

Any that you have taken with the problem can usually be
removed when editing.

Never occurred to me that they could be new Cameras!!

Come on it did say Top Ten Models!!!

Top quality as usual Gary.. colours in the shirt, belt etc.
in shot 3 are superb for a stage shot.

I think you'll be tied up with too many new studio DIY projects
for the next few months

I suppose if it's off you could allow for it and instead of 1 dot showing set it to 2 or 3 dots whichever is correct.
