      @haubles neither of us are doing it so I think we should both feel safe and not threatened

      @dutchcelt mine has a wide angle high-res view for some awful reason

         @zachleat I had a similar problem. I decided to use my phone using Camo Studio and this can crop the view of the camera. So it's cropped to keep the mess out of view. :)

   @zachleat I wish that everything was tidy but it really looks like the edge of a blast wave just outside the FoV. Le sigh.
