No, it does not happen like this. Happens with _some_ light source, from _some_ angles. Barely ever on the edge of the lens and never without distortion there.

- photoGrant 7y agoOK mate. I've got and done photographs supporting what I just said. But I'll concede, whatever.
- pmlnr 7y agoMay I see some of those photos? I'm genuinely curious what lens is capable of night flares on the edge without distortion; the only one I can think of is the Nikkor 50mm 1.2, considering it was designed for this. The Pentax 85mm 1.8, which is my closest to that lens certainly can't do this feat but in the center - it does spectacular nightscapes though.
- photoGrant 7y agoYes you may. They're raw renders from an online archive from photographs 10 years ago, so lets leave the artistic judgements aside. https://imgur.com/a/fAhJOVc https://imgur.com/a/fAhJOVc
- pmlnr 7y agoUhm... this only verifies what I was saying: they are not uniform. There are deformations, differences among them, as it should be. The opening post had basically the exact same flaring and it was obviously post production.
