could be cos of the long focus and u got some massive eyepiece with lots of glass?
I wanted to know what u guys were talking about so i got out the 8" and went to the right location and yeah there is a white smudge. I saw it in the melbourne subs so it's visible. but like yeah....
u need a very wide angle. i use a RINI eyepiece 30mm with no coatings 33x mag, it's very good for finding small globs and smudges.
