[Austin] And this was while using studio lighting I would suppose? As said, there are cases where lighting forward of the camera will cause some phenomenon, but comparing a video studio situation to a photo situation (studio or not) is a completely different set of circumstances. I have been shooting in the studio (and out) for 25 years, always using filters and have NEVER seen any image problems at all. I do not shoot Leicas in the studio, I shoot with Hasselblads. I can see where it would happen in a video studio though, if care were not taken in the lighting. - -------------------------
