Today, most lenses are multi-coated in order to minimize lens flare and other unwanted effects.

A lens flare is often deliberately used to invoke a sense of drama.

In some cases, this may be considered an unwelcome effect as it can cause lens flare or change the audience's perception of a theatrical scene.

The new one has less brown and less lens flare, so that's good I guess.

Another style employed was lens flares harking back to 1970s television.

"That's just a lens flare," someone said, without force.

Similar colored fringing around highlights may also be caused by lens flare.

A low angle could cause the light to hit the camera lens, causing a lens flare.

The Optics engine is designed for creating artificial lens flares and light sources.

It's pretty cut and dried: outer space, stars, rich purple nebula, lens flare.
