5. Chromatic aberration

The thing that turned out well for the constructors of the Voigtlander’s 3.5/20 optics was the high degree of the chromatic aberration correction. You can see it well on the graph below.

The highest level of aberration we notice at the maximum relative aperture, where, on the edge of the APS-C/DX sensor and the full frame alike, it amounts to 0.10-0.11%. It is a medium level. On stopping down the CA is reduced very quickly to less than 0.08% so to a low level, absolutely not bothersome in real life photos.

The longitudinal chromatic aberration is also not a problem for the tested lens and you can see it clearly in the view below.
