A history of Sony Alpha - Minolta AF 50 mm f/1.7 versus Sony DT 50 mm f/1.8 SAM - Chromatic aberration

The Sony’s chromatic aberration correction is exemplary. In its case this aberration level is low at all apertures. The Minolta fares worse because on stopping down the aberration reaches the medium level. Fortunately it isn’t high anywhere and it won’t be seriously bothersome.
