Do master prime Zeiss anamorphic lenses flare?

[Matthew Glover]

Very curious. On the website it says they have the "blue streaks" But I have heard from other people that they DO NOT flare. :sad: Have not really seen any shots with then that are recent.

I've only seen three focal lengths, but they do flare in a blue/cyan way which matches the general coatings that Zeiss is using for their newer lenses. However, they are very contrasty and have a good amount of flare protection. So you'll want to hit it with a strong and sourcey light. Stray flare/glare is well protected though.

Thanks Phil!

While all lenses are subject to flaring... And so are the MP's, this are well controlled when come so flaring, but what little they do it is indeed with a tonality cast towards the cool side, personally I loved them, and if they were not so dam big and heavy, I would have never sold them...
