Just the old coating. Shows through more on digital over film. While my old 50/3.5 Uncoated Elmar was ok on the M8, if I don't use a good with it on the M9 it looks like an iPhone 3 image.

I got a 35mm 3.5 summaron because it’s relatively small and I thought it could be an OK carry around in daylight lens but there’s something crazy going on with it. The lens is clean & fungus free. Is this just how the lens behaves or is there something hinkey going on? it’s at f3.5 1/500 second. It looks like an instagram photo.
