9. Ghosting and flares

As long as you operate in area close to the maximum relative aperture you won’t notice any serious problems with ghosting and flares. Still, a very complex optical construction, with as many as 22 air-to-glass surfaces, makes itself felt on stopping down. When you close down the aperture you can catch a lot of light artifacts and they are visible even when the sun is situated far away from the frame. It is not a performance you would like to get from a top-of-the-range, professional lens.
