No problem with the lighting in those pics. What a helmet!! Being new I haven't seen it yet, so thanks for sharing.

Why is there no paint on the rivet heads? Has the liner been replaced?

Thanks for the comments this far.
@ Glenn: Best I can tell the liner is original and the pins are good. The band is tight to the shell with the kind of dust and dirt you like to see gathered between the band and shell. I tried to photograph those aspects yesterday but the natural light was too weak and the flash too inconsistent to capture any of it very well. There are low points of white paint on the pins and behind the pins. I do suspect this helmet was cleaned at some point, I think a long time ago, which may have contributed to the lack of paint on the pins. And we all know of 100% helmets with great paint on the shells but almost no paint on the pins.
@Andy: sorry to hear your camera was converted to a litter box. You're a serious and committed helmet collector so it's about time you sunk some serious cash into a really good camera. I actually redid by camera set up for this shoot and the shoot I did on the field police visor in the clot headgear section. The next time we get a decent weather day I will set up the "studio" and take a few shots to show how I did this shoot. I was much happier with this photo shoot.
