Got Sensor Dust? Here's How to Check. — digital-photography-school.com — Readability: "We all know that dust on a DSLR sensor can range anywhere from the mildly annoying to downright problematic. You can try avoiding it, but the simple, unfortunate truth about sensor dust is that regardless of how careful you are, onto every sensor some dust will fall at some time. The closest you might come to avoiding it would be if you were to put a prime lens on your camera when it’s brand new and never change it or take it off. Ever. We all know that’s not about to happen, so dealing with dust becomes a critical part of regular camera maintenance. Part of eradicating any enemy, however, first requires some knowledge of where he’s hiding and how he got there."

Fort Mill’s Wysocki aiming to reclaim top spot in US disc golf this week at Winthrop | Sports | Rock Hill Herald Online

Fort Mill’s Wysocki aiming to reclaim top spot in US disc golf this week at Winthrop | Sports | Rock Hill Herald Online: "“Cha-ching” is the sound of Ricky Wysocki’s disc golf putts connecting successfully with the basket’s chain netting, but it’s also the sound he could hear if he pulls out a win in the U.S. Disc Golf Championship this week at Winthrop.

Wysocki, who lives in Fort Mill, is the local in a field of around 120 professional disc golfers vying to win the tournament and the accompanying $50,000 prize that fattens the victor’s wallet. Wysocki enters the event ranked second in the world behind Paul McBeth, who recently usurped the top spot. Throw in Wysocki’s narrow second place finish to Will Schusterick in last year’s tournament, and there is plenty of motivation to win this year."
