> > , has > there been any previous SMC lenses with this poor flare control? Holy Man!!! That lens has 18!!!!!! elements in 14 groups. Thats 28 air/glass interfaces, and 8 glass/glass interfaces. Consider that when you judge it's flare resistance in what can only be described as a torture test. OTOH, my old SMC Takumar 6x7 5/4.5 has awful flare resistance.
