Dear Redusers,

I just received my new Red Scarlet Dragon. I've been doing some tests to see what it can/can't do. I found a few issues. I do have the gate/sensor/cmos smear/horizontal flare. As I read, it is something I got to get used to it and that's fine with me. But something else happened. When I shoot something/someone in front of a bright light source, a thick purple edge appears around the object. I read something about lens related... I've used my lenses on different cameras in the past and I've never really seen something like that and if I did, it wasn't that thick and obvious.

Can someone tell me if it is something I have to live with it also?

Thank you.

Let me guess, you were using the zeiss lens wide opened?

Its chromatic aberration, yes.

Just stop down a bit, you weren't getting anything but a silhouette in that shot anyway
 
It is a Zeiss Compact Prime CP.2 35mm T1.5

I shot the first shot at f2.0 and the second at f4
