The idea of the vector dominance is still in use in various analyses of the experimental data of photon–hadron reactions. It makes sense, therefore, to recast results of microscopic calculations of such reactions in this language. Here we present the diffractive DIS ρ3 production as a specific correction to generalized vector dominance. We perform a coupled channel analysis of spin–orbital excitations in diffractive photoproduction and reiterate the point that ρ3 in diffractive DIS will be sensitive to a novel aspect of diffraction.
