Leica 24-90 bad copy or is this normal...

Harbelot, the chromatic aberation is pretty much only at 24mm in the corners.  The more you zoom in, the less it comes up.  At 24, i can make it happen every time.  And thats on multiple copies of the lens at this point.  And its in the deep corners.  I shoot architecture and interior design for publications for a living…so this always ends up being curtains or a window, or something annoying for me…so not having that happen in lens is a big deal.  The 24-70 will stay on for client projects at the moment.  Im still figuring out where i stand on the 24-90.  I love the feel of the lens.  The focus ring on the 24-70 is so loose feeling in comparison.  We’ll see.

i also just noticed that the SL3 files seem much better actually in capture one.  Ive been hot foldering the files into lightroom while tethering in capture one.  I might experiment with this more as well…
