They are a bit stinky in the far corners....kinda egg shape with a tail.
This could be a backfocus issue. You can use calipers to ensure your backfocus is dead on. I would also recommend shooting flats.


See the post above by 'wsbrown'. On his recommendation I have some shims ordered that hopefully will solve my star issues - yes, most likely backfocus spacing. I think I have some calipers in the garage, my husband uses them when changing brakepads...nope not the right kind of caliper lol.
