So I was browsing kenrockwell.com and came upon an interesting article he wrote about the f8 super angulon. He claims these lenses produce no flare or ghosting and can even be shot directly into a light source with no I'll effect.
Quoted below:
"I doubt coating makes any difference in anything except a subtle difference in color transmission since these have no ghosting or flare; feel free to shoot straight into the light.*"
I have noticed no flare in my own SA but didn't think much of it other than gee I got lucky. Does anyone know what attribute or construction mechanic allows this lens to be free from these phenomena?
