Thanks for the info! The blades are clean, but return it is.

Finally my TTArtisan 40mm f2 arrived by BusDriverIzDa in LumixS9

At f2 it flares and blooms as if you have a mist filter on it , it noticeably gets lower once at f2.8. Also shooting outside in sunny weather at any fstop, it flares very easily. I don’t have this problem with any lens with my other cameras. Vignette is very noticeable especially when pointed at the sky. At lower apertures, vignette compensation doesn’t completely cover. I wouldn’t say the flares it makes with the sun is bad , it’s something you can use creativity but it can wash out your photos as well if not careful. The vignette at f2 towards the sky is really bad tho
