(See http://www.paulroark.com/BW-Info/KolariVision-UT-filter.pdf) Perhaps the most significant change was that I found the latest Adobe DNG converter can convert the Sony a7r compressed files to DNG, allowing Cornerfix to be used. This makes it much simpler to deal with the color artifacts of the compact wide angle lenses, with the 28mm f/2.8 Elmarit-M ASPH being on top of my list of such.
