Flare resistance never was a strong point of the 35/2.
This the result, had to change the exposure -2.0 as it seems the D500 lightmeter was fooled by the strong side light.
The flare is still clearly visible.
I actually like to use this old-timer on the brand new D500  :)

Flare like that can usually be controlled just by using your hand to cut off the troublesome light rays.

Yes, but I wanted to see how bad it was. The file direct out-of-camera was even worse as the meter did an over exposure.

If you *really* want to see horrendous flare, just shoot the same scene in IR ...

B&W or Color?
Shot with Nikkor-O 35mm f/2.
I try to keep this lens out of the sun as well.
Or like Bjørn stated your hand, or I use my Lastolite portable gray card it comes in handy.

In this particular case, I won't hesitate to pick the color version.  The stunning red accent is hard to avoid.

Exif says 28mm.  The lens info is mis-set?

I'm asking because these pictures were posted in another thread and no reference to the 35/2 O was seen there.

A thread dedicated to a given lens should be kept clean of other focal lengths, however successful those images might be. Only exeception would be shoot-outs comparing different lenses, though.
