What the heck is inverse quadratic diminution? Maybe I shouldn't ask! I believe you are seeing vignetting. I it seems more pronounced on large format cameras with a short focal length. For a flat film plane, the light from a pinhole falls off as the forth power of the cosine of

Hello: This is an analytical question, not a criticism. On some of Jeff's photos (all very nice, by the way), I see a round central region of brighter...uh, exposure, for lack of a more eloquent term. Some don't have it. Is that vignetting due, or is it the inverse quadratic or cubic
