What do they think I wonder about these chromatic aberrations and distortion on the edges? You look at a picture anywhere and odds are it was taken with these cameras. How do they all get it under control? Do they just ignore it? What's their work around I wonder?<<<<<<<, Hi Mark, Well I guess I just shoot and don't go through all the techie stuff you've mentioned, simply because I don't know what you're talking about. :-) And the people who pay me, sometimes absolutely ridiculous amounts of money for having fun, they don't complain about the pictures not being technically right if that be the case! :-) Therefore I'm doing exactly what I've done with a camera & lens for over a half a century as a professional. Take pictures and having a great time! Only now it's digital and I'm loving it! :-) Now about that "work around thing? What part of picture taking is that? :-) WHY? Well the work word doesn't fit in my vocabulary of shooting because it's fun and always having a good time doing it. WORK? Moving concrete blocks is work! Being a photojournalist is having fun! :-) :-) :-) Ted Oh yeah and I use a Leica M8 and a Canon. the best of both worlds! :-)
