35mm focal plane and defringe

[tpatana]

Just received my second RF lens. 28-70 is bit heavy for walkaround, especially if it's late night drinking type of walkaround. So I bought 35mm 1.8 lens even though it's basically covered with my other lens. (F2.0 vs. F1.8 is ~meaningless difference).

Quick try, now on the lens cap. If you look the texture of the surface, you can see how crazy thin the focal plane is at the minimum focusing distance. Also on the zoomed in picture, there's surprisingly plenty color fringing. Both pictures are SOOC. LR CA removal didn't do anything for that color, but manual defringe was able to remove most of it.

I have to agree tpatana, that's not good. I'm not against software helping to remove aberations but I expect the basic lens to be a good starting point. I'm still using my EF lenses and this doesn't give me confidence in changing to RF glass!
