Even if you had the light behind you at about a 10 degree angle it would still cause a lot of flare. Is the Leica lens better in regards to flare? All of the comments I have heard about the Leica 15 indicate it is an outstanding optic, but after seeing the Nikons flarre control, or lack there of, I was wondering about the Leica. apbc wrote >I have asked Leica 15 users about this and they say FWIW the corners are >very sharp.
