When you were in Iraq, did you do any photography from helicopters? If so, did you find that while infinity shots seem fine and sharp, that when you framed the shots with something close-by, like the doorframe or the door-gunner's window, that you get a halo (a fairly hard line) around the close-up objects, while the distant objects still seemed sharp? Do you know what causes the effect? Is it a regular high-frequency vibration from the aircraft?
