Sometimes we see lens flare as a nuisance, but it can also be a deliberate creative decision that adds mood to our photos. I’m sure you’ve had it in your photos, deliberately or by accident, and with different lenses.

Each type of lens has its recognizable type of flare, and today we’re here to test if you can tell them apart. In this fun quiz, you can test yourself and see if you can tell the lens based only on its lens flare.

Here’s how it works: ten questions, each containing a photo of a lens flare. You’ll get three answers to choose from and try to guess which lens generated the flare. To make things a little easier, we also give you a photo of each lens, giving you a visual aid.

You can test your knowledge in the quiz below, and if you find it fun, make sure to share it with your friends. Oh, and don’t forget to let us know your score!
