Noooo dust splatter streaks ;(

Bah! Had saved them on Amazon already and hoping somewhere else might have them for a bit less. Gonna work out at £39ish for 12 swabs and Eclipse. Pricey.

Well, that was stressful. I've used several swabs but slight improvement from start to finish, although there's a shadow that seems impossible to shift on the right (not evident on photos though). So bloody hard to get a good ref picture with no ambient light and artificial lighting just highlights any defects in the paper/card you aim at. All shot at f/25.

Start:

Made a right mess of it with a dust speck and smear in the bottom left:

There is a slight smudge on the right side but as you say it's at f25, I'll be damned if you see that in normal shooting at all!

Yup, never noticed that smudge on my photos before today until I looked at those reference photos. Think I can live with it.
