Brendan, I had very similar experience to what you describe just in regard to flare. I would aim my camera and see a flare in the viewfinder. I then would stop down the lens by DOF preview button and still see it. Then I would take a shot and voila - no flare. Finally I realized that if I looked in the VF without my glasses - no flare would be seen.
I shall keep your observation in mind next time I process my 80-320 shots ;-). Thanks. Boris Brendan MacRae wrote: > I had my glasses on this morning while pulling up a > .jpg in PS.
