I found the exact same thing.  Of course once you get the film far 
from the glass you can see a noticble dropoff in sharpness. I 
tried everything from straight on the glass, to in the provided 
holder, to having the provided holder shimmed up about 1/16 of 
an inch, and I saw no noticable difference.
