Lens Chromatic Aberration Comparison

Sony 16-50 vs. Sony 50mm 1.8
Chromatic Aberration at 50mm.
F1.8, F2.8, F4, F8
As you can see Sony 50mm F1.8 SAM DT has pretty heavy Chromatic Aberration in its widest aperture (F1.8).

When stopped down to F2.8, CA is still prominent especially in comparison to Sony 16-50 DT F2.8 SAM.

At F4, it barely exists though and At F8 it is gone for good.

On the other hand Sony 16-50 DT F2.8 SAM has pretty nice CA control. We can even say its completely CA free even in its widest aperture.
