That is all I was saying. I did notice it the first time when I was at the coast with a vast section of the photography monotonic ... sea and sky went together. I am fairly paranoid about how I handle the camera. When not in use, I keep it in a plastic bag, not a dusty Domke. It's being used most of the time though, so it is out in the open a lot. So far I've been able to blow the dust off. I dread the day when the build up of static electricity makes that impossible.
