I got 7/10, but I didn't deserve it as I guessed many of them!

9/10, never heard of a flash bracket being called a hammerhead. I just call it a bracket.

9/10 - Never cleaned my sensors so didn't know you needed power to keep the mirror up.

8/10... that surprised the heck out of me.
Guess I'm learning more than I thought.

Scored 7/10

Never heard of a hammerhead, foreground interest or a shift lens. You learn something new everyday!

That is the same one I missed. Never heard of a "hammerhead." I wonder how dated that question is?

8/10 which is very surprising. DPS has helped me a lot I guess. I didn't know about the hammerhead and about the sensor cleaning. I felt it would be better if the questions were random instead of the same ones repeating as that would allow us to get an average score over say three tries.
