| 18-55mm AL WR weird effects
Hi all, I noticed some strange effect on lights. Which are not noticeable while shooting at widest focal length. Some of lights has some kind of aureole. Halo? Flare? How should I call it? After short search in a web I couldn't find even similar, except sun or moon pictures, but those You can see even with naked eye.. For now I don't know if I like it, but its interesting why I'm getting it. So far I am about sure its more related to focal length then F, but I need more testing (and it needs low light  ).Also, does anybody had similar effects? | |

 Originally posted by VisualDarkness  Looks a bit like how my Pentax Q handles bright light, but yours actually looks really good! Do you got any haze on one of the lens elements? I like the look anyway. I should test it with some other lens (I got old m42 50mm). I also forgot to check via live view. For now I'm interested if it lens or camera fault. If its lens fault I may blame pure internal(?) coating. p.s. I guess I need to make some check list, what to do: test Live view test on other lens try to catch it on video | |

I guess I like it. tried to make video, but as it was one of my first time doing it, it sucks a bit, but coma is visible. thanks for all who replied, or wanted to... | |
