Default Phoenix imagery quality?

Perhaps I'm making a mountian out of a mole hill. but some of the
imagery coming in from the self portraits and local landing area of
the Phoenix seems to be "fuzzy" and slightly out of focus. Perhpas
calibration is still being done?.................Doc

dust obscuring the camera that close in it would build up on the
surfaces pretty quick.* On the other hand I haven't cleaned my glasses
in quite a while

Most likely.


OR.... that way it's easier to hid the domed cities in the background with
less photoshopping.

....Not to mention the partially-buried Battlecrab that the Shadows hid
