The IR "hot spot" phenomenon can be found referenced throughout the  
IR literature. Some wide angle lenses (from any and all  
manufacturers) display the phenomenon and others don't. The  
phenomenon does not translate to Panchromatic or Color renditions  
from the same lenses. I don't fully understand the light wave  
length : optical formula that causes it.
