LOL...I'll keep this in mind for the future!
I'm sure we've all done something kinda like this at one time or another...even if it is trying to take an image with the lens cap still on! LOL

You'll never see sensor crud through the viewfinder, it's impossible. It's certainly obvious in hindsight. I can't say that I wouldn't have done the same thing the OP did. I, too, have spent hours troubleshooting a problem that was obvious to someone else. Unless you *completely* understand the system it's easy to be operating under faulty assumptions. ---------------

A bit of humiliation is good for the soul.....or so James Brown would have us believe. My strict training prevents me from making mistakes. Even my mistakes are perfect. Curse of being trained by the same dudes that trained batman... you know... the dudes in the mountain and stuff.
