Canon 35L.. is this normal?

So I just picked up my 35L and decided to take some photos of my 1D mark iii, and when I did I got this green and red fringing all over my white details that I have not seen appear on any other 35L pictures I've browsed through. Is this normal? Has a UC date code if that helps.

Yes, chromatic aberrations are typical in high contrast regions for almost all fast prime lenses, and certainly for all EOS fast prime lenses. You will get that kind of fringing with the 24L, 35L, 50L, 85L....

The green and red (near far) are due to LOCA, purple fringe will be found in the plane of focus.

Thanks for the reply. I knew it'd be there but didn't think it would be as obvious as that

It's funny, if you really try and make CA it is easy to do. But then in the majority of shots it is just no big deal.

When it does show up, it can be corrected. Here is an example where the shot had high contrast and so CA became a problem. I could fix it in Lightroom no problem.

For reference, this was the complete shot with the fringe corrected.

Correcting it I suppose is an easy fix, but I do find it difficult to find a medium between getting rid of the CA and losing color in objects such as the your subject's lips in the fixed picture.

Yeah, that was a quick fix in LR. To do it right you need to mask and do the correction in a layer (which means not in LR).

You pretty much shot the perfect condition to bring out CA; high contrast with the subject tilted. Check out this test chart which exhibit green CA distant and purple CA closer to the camera

It's common, but most DSLRs now (5D3, 1Dx, etc) have chromatic aberrations (fringing) correction in-camera. Also, Lightroom has correction that is fairly automated and can be applied on import. That's probably why you don't see it in photos posted.

I was under the impression that the in-camera correction was addressing lateral CA, not longitudinal CA (as in the OP) - does it actually address both?
