All my MF lenses are "silver nose" which seemed to be popular at one time;
just as black bodies were all the rage, blacking out all the numbers and
lettering on them popular, and more recently Titanium bodies (or at least
the color).
I've used them under a very wide range of lighting conditions and never
noted any flare problem from the silver nose. The fringe benefit of a
sliver nose: it's much more difficult to "brass" the nose on them
compared to the "black nose" lenses.

John,
On your site you list your 35mm Shift as being MC. I must say I haven't
been able to find an MC example of one. What is the serial number sans the
last digits. I might hope that one day I will find one to buy.
Otherwise I think I'm going to have to fork out the money for a new
example; maybe I'll go for the 24mm then.
