Interstellar extinction as a function of distance in the direction of a 30 sq arcmin field near the globular cluster M 71 is determined using CCD photometry of 56 stars down to V = 15 mag in the Vilnius photometric system. The stars show a considerable range of extinction for the distances probed, very similar to that for the one square degree field around M 71 obtained in two previous papers. This scattering exceeds the expected AV errors and probably is caused by the cloud structure of interstellar dust. A number of stars with very low extinction for their distance have been detected.
