I bought this lens off ebay for too much money. It is in like new condition and I had assumed it was old stock or something. After using it I think the original owner did the same thing I did… He took a few pictures with is and realized it is a P.O.S. This lens has the worst chromatic aberration I have ever seen on a lens period. The color fringing happens on anything out of focus even back grounds that aren’t to contrasted…

Look at the squirrels back…

I am hoping that the new lens profiler that Adobelabs.com came up with will work to straighten this lens out. If not I am going to shoot it, literally, because it is not worth selling to someone…
