I don't use the lens for high definition work which, I understand, the aspherical does well. In 35mm for that purpose, I use the 35,2.8 Elmarit R. And really, I only had a flare problem with the sun at a particular angle or a very bright window light at night - again, only a a particular angle. I guess if I were buying a 1.4 for the first time I would go with the aspherical design given all of the praise it has received here. But, for now, I think I'll keep the old Summilux. Thanks again for you inout. Bob
