Going on with tests of the fast Prakticar (Pancolar) as for its glow/shrapness wide open, here are some more shots. They are taken in diffused soft natural light created by a clouded sky. As contrasted to a situation of strong light, when glow is very much pronounced, softer light praktically eliminates the glow and gives an imoression of another lens.

The shots are taken with Sony A7, with autocontrast applied or contrast sligtly pushed. For reference, here is a thread to compare with, where glowy images are exposed and discussed.
