Hello Richard, 5 bladed shutter. Put the ground glass (plate adapter) on and opened the lens looking into a 300 Watt studio light, and could not find any such artifact, at any aperture.You might do better with a smaller and less intense source. I suggested a pencil flash because it is nearly a point source and can be moved around easily. Get it so that it shines on the inside of the camera. While late Rolleis have a very effective set of light baffles one can still get reflections. The cross may be either diffraction or even possibly an odd reflection because it looks like involute circle a possible pattern for a reflection.Hi Carlos, the flare is in plainly visible on the negative itself.Something about shooting into bright light a distance away in a high contrast image... hmmm. Maybe I need another Rollei. I like shooting into the sun.E.
