Are you using yours on a full frame or crop?

Sorry Phil for the hi-jack.
Full frame Nikon D700.

Attached are two unedited top corners of the full frame from a recent image at 14mm, f/2.8, 30 sec, ISO32000. Note that in "Corner 1" the stars are more elongated because it is further away from SCP.

Cheers,
Alex
