It's still there, mind you, and if I run it under several ungodly sharpening passes, it will look the same, but I'm obviously not going to do that.
Is this just one of those unavoidable facts of light physics and you're plain just fucked? Or are there things you can do to eliminate it entirely?
Funnily enough, your suggestion of interference has led me down some reading on 'Newton Rings', and it might also be that. Some people saying that UV filters (or any filter really) that aren't completely parallel to your front element can cause this kind of whacky shit, and I *did* have a UV filter on at the time. Fancinating shit, really.
