Maybe I'm just lucky.  I have had a 2nd version 3E for about a year.  I've
shot indoor events with color print film and the SF20.  I've done a lot
shooting out of doors with ProviaF and HP5.  I don't own the hood.  I've not
seen any flare problems at all.

IMO, the sharpness in fine details lags a bit behind my 50 and 35 summicrons
but is certainly adequate.
Just my USD.02,

Michael Gardner
