9. Ghosting and flares

Unfortunately the lens experiences a lot of problems with work against bright light. At the maximum relative aperture the situation is perhaps not so bad but on stopping down the aperture it deteriorates significantly. You can see flares no mater whether the sun is inside the frame or outside it. What’s more, in some cases these flares are pretty intensive and they can change their position, colour and intensity if you change the position of the source of light only slightly. It is a bit strange because the producer boast of using special, efficient, anti-reflective coatings.
