Shooting Into the Sun (04550022/29)
March 31st, 2008


One of the worries of a single coated lens is flare resistance. The CV 35 1.4 SC seems fine on this account. Although there is definitely evidence of flare here, it does seem to fill in the shadows as is often advertised for single coated lenses. Lower contrast is the result as is clearly shown in the second picture. I’ll need more experience with it before I can use it to effect, but it doesn’t seem likely to cause any insurmountable problems.
I should note that I do not own the hood for this lens, but I do have B+W MRC filter on the front of it.
