Some recent photos from the Huntington Library and Gardens (home of "Blue Boy", and other historical treasures of art, literature, and history), San Marino, CA.
All shot with Leica R 60/2.8 macro, most at f/8, hand held, LRCC
Does anyone have recommendations on how to deal with flare when using a Leica 180mm Telyt APO 3.4 on a Sony A7IIR? Mine is a late model E60.
Light sources and bright areas outside the visual area cause flare on my Leica 180mm Telyt and I wonder how bad this can get. I am debating whether to bring this lens for travel to Europe for architecture and landscape, or another lens with less flare. It would be wonderful use the Telyt because it is so light, but the flare worries me.

I am afraid you can't avoid it...

It's a compromise. You choose big news lenses without flare or vintage ones with... It's up to you..
I prefer small lenses for travel and actually always...
