Lens Flare

Zillah · 2004-08-02 03:59:48

Just a quick question, does a light source have to be in(or partially in) an image to cause lense flare, or could a light source that is essentially "off camera" cause flare?

If you've got wide angle, you can get it from out of frame light sources (I've a sigma 15-30 - flare can be a nightmare) - but sometimes (rarely) it'll add to a photo
