    I just purchased an X-H2S, and took it into the backyard to try the bird detect focus. It actually captured a hummingbird that was moving around really fast. But when I opened the files in Lightroom, I was shocked at the amount of sensor dust that was visible against the sky. It was everywhere. I was thinking, "Hey Fuji, at least let me get my own sensor dirty."

    It turned out to be gnats that were flying around my backyard. I took some more photos of the blank sky at another location at f/16 and could barely see one faint speck of dust.

    You beat me, Morris. If those are gnats, it looks like Fuji needs to improve their gnat eye focus.

    Those are gnats and I'd rather Fuji fix there gnat repellent feature. I was eaten alive!

    No black flies here yet we do get green flies there they are about the same size and as hungry as black flies which happen to love the way I taste. The last time I was hiking in Mane I missed putting DEET on one spot on my forehead and I had blood flowing into my eyes.
