Yes, your quite right. I thought about it but didn't comment on
that aspect. I found it quite peculiar that part of the same 
chip was slightly out of focus. I thought this probably was done
on purpose, but I don't think it served it's intended goal if 
this was the case. It would have been better in both views, to
have been sharp thru out.
