Are you sure other scenes showed an abnormal (or no) star field while in hyperspace?

Yes. They show a white cloud effect.

[Honor this line - it had to fight to get here!]
To recapitulate, the question was this:
Scene is as follows: Luke, Han, Leah, et. al., have just made
good their escape from the deathstar, and destroyed the sentry ships.
Han and Leah are having a conversation on the bridge of the Millenium
Falcon. There is SOMETHING WRONG with this scene.
And now (drumroll, flourish of trumpets), THE ANSWER:
In the scene immediately prior, we see Moff Tarkin and Vader
having a conversation back at the Death Star. Tarkin - "Are they away?";
Vader - "They have just made the jump into hyperspace."
But as Han and Leah talk, we see a perfectly normal starfield
thru the windows on the Falcon's bridge.
In addition to the posted response to this question (which was
correct) I received 5 mailed replies, 1 incorrect, 1 missing all but

In the "A New Hope", just before Han Solo dropped out of hyperspace into the Alderaan (sp?) system, there was a scene in the window similar to the "wormhole" in "Star Trek: The Motion Picure".
