This is reputed to be a superb lens. I am not surprised it
has just a little flare since it has 8 air glass surfaces. It
would be interesting to see a comparison of lenses which are
similar except for the type of coating.

This picture prompted me to sell this lens eventually. Admittedly, I also own the modern Cosina/Zeiss ZM 2.8/35mm Biogon, so did not really need to keep both.
Should really reshoot this picture with the ZM 35mm lens and the AF Zeiss/Sony 35mm Sonnar which I bought this year for the Sony 7II to get the full comparison of all three.
