Some wide open goodness...

Just picked up this magnificent piece of glass!!! How are you guys controlling CA?

PF, not strictly pure CA, can be controlled by stopping down a little, and longitudinal CAs, i.e. dark magenta fringes in the foreground OOF zone and greenish fringes in the background OOF zone also by stopping down a bit.

PF is apparent at very high contrast transitions, but only occurs generally in harsh lighting at large apertures. LoCas, which are a by-effect of the spherical aberrations that make the bokeh of this lens so smooth, are generally not disturbing.

Kind regards, Wim

This lens.... I want it so bad. lol I'd sell my soul to the devil just to acquire this lens.

Try putting an add on the buy/sell forum, though personally speaking if your looking to trade i think you might have to put some cash on top
