Centered isn't always the best position. Sometimes you have to intentionally adjust it to a position significantly off center and out of plane. Just do whatever gets you a nice centered picture with no shadows.

As mentioned above, there can be significant interaction between the ion trap and focus magnet. It may take a while, but you'll likely find positions for both which give you a nice bright, centered picture with no shadows.
