M_Six Cream of the Crop More info | Yes, why? You gain a very tiny bit of range and lose 1/3 f-stop. The range you can make up by taking a step forward. The speed is not as easily regained. Mark J.

But seriously CA only takes half a minute to deal with in post. Small price to pay for such a great lens otherwise!actually, i have taken many pictures that i cant fix CA / purple fringing in lightroom, i can reduce it but not completely remove it Canon EOS 5Dc (mk1), and some lenses.
