I was using an Arax shift adapter. It had a specific design issue in the shift mechanism that was the source of internal reflection. I was able to temporarily flock it to confirm it as the source, but I never achieved a permanent solution. Since I had gotten the shift adapter it to coincide with my 35/3.5 N for pano shifting, I didn\'t pursue it further (having already sold my 35/3.5 N). I now have the Canon 24L TS-E II.
Since getting my Fotodiox Pro adapter (no shift/no tilt) I have not experienced any issues as before.
