I just my film back from the lab from my Labor day weekend shots. The one shot I made with no filters is razor sharp everywhere. However, every shot I made with nd grad filters seems to be generally sharp, but have one spot (roughly 1" square) on the right center of each frame that is out of focus. I don't get it. Could it be the filters? Why is is localized to one spot? Is this a common problem? What can I do about it?
I thought I saw something like this before, but I thought it was insufficient depth of field issue with a front tilt. Looking back on it, maybe it was the same problem. This time I used no tilts at all.
All my equipment is decent quality - Singh-ray filters, schneider 180 lens, toyo AII camera.
Thanks.
