The new 20/1.8 AF-S is almost flare resistant :)

Well Fons, you were in The Hague. Nasty flare I might add.

Den Haag is famous for its flair ;)

Sometimes you have to call on the firebrigade to seek for flare-protection, the yet infamous 18mm f/4

If you ever wondered which lens is almost void of flare, I suggest you try the 20/1.8G  8)

Jakov, did you use a protection filter on the lens?  I don't intend to nitpick, but I wonder the septagonal ghost next to the sun caused by the filter?

Akira, I didn't use any filters. The only filters that I use biannually are ND filters with very little success :)

Thanks Jakov and John !

Jakov, this afternoon I picked up a Contax Zeiss Planar 1.4/50 and was able to test it just before the sun disappeared. It is actually relatively flare resistant and that is why I tried shooting against the (low) sun wide open with this result. No significant PP.
