I took this today on top of the local parking garage (I wanted to see how wide "wide" is). I was pretty much shooting into the sun, had my lens hood on and this is the result.

Obviously it's blown out where the sun is but I'm not seeing any residual ghosting or flares. I have a skylight filter on it that the camera shop included when they shipped it, don't know if that and the combo of the lens hood saved me or not.
