Why is there a red dot on the notifications in my preferences system on my iMac?

Unless I misunderstood the question, the red dot moved away just a bit.

See for example, Mountain Lion below.

OS X El Capitan: use the Notification Center

  • Why is there no DPP data for the lens EF75 - 300mm f/4 - 5.6

    DPP is not given for my EF75 - 300mm f/4-5. 6 goal.  Why and when?

    Hi PajamaGuy!

    Thanks for posting.

    There is no data because the function digital optimizer DPP lens is not compatible with the goal of f/4-5. 6 EF 75-300mm.  This function is not compatible with certain objectives, most of which are in our range of the L series.  We do not have an estimate for if or when the DLO function may be compatible with the objective of f/4-5. 6 EF 75-300mm.
