No, I wouldn't call it vignetting, but it is a bit
distracting (but then I've never been a fan of polarizing filters
<g>). Nice shot, though.
It's not like most of these modern miniature 35mm cameras
that seem unable to produce an even corner-to-corner illumination.
It's pretty hard to scan a slide when the corners are about a stop
and a half darker than the centre.
Sorry for changing the subject, Rob. Pet peeve of mine! Many
of my Biology Dept. colleagues use these cameras for field work, and
I am constantly being asked to scan these uneven slides and negatives.
