Nikon Nikkor AF-S 24 mm f/1.4G ED

20 April 2011

9. Ghosting and flares

As in the category of vignetting, the duel between the Canon and the Nikon was won by the latter, when it comes to the work against bright light the Nikkor loses significantly. The flares are visible no matter whether you use big or small sensor. You can notice them near the maximum relative aperture and they become really pronounced on stopping down. What’s more, there are different possible combinations, depending on the position of the source of light. The source doesn’t have to be situated inside the frame or in its corner but it can also be further away – the artifacts will be still visible in the photo ( see the second of the pictures below).
