The Nikkor AF-S 85 mm f/1.4G works well against bright light. The light artifacts can be caught only at a specific position of the sun in one of the frame corners and still it is not always doable. When some flares are caught anyway, like these shown in the photos below, they are neither intense nor especially bothersome. The overall image contrast is not bad too. The sun in such a situation shines almost straight into the optical system, ended by the huge front element; nevertheless the photos are not overly pale.
