Lots of people love the f/1.2 despite the horrible CA. In fact, the reason I got rid of mine was mostly because of the inconsistent and slow focusing. If this f/1.4 version improves significantly on the focus accuracy and speed, then I think it will do well despite there still being some CA. I know I will be considering buying one... I don't consider the difference between f/1.2 and f/1.4 to be a deal breaker. With that said though... That image showing the very worst CA... I thought that red was the color of the material! That is ridiculously bad!

1.2 AF inconsistency ends with the new AF Dual. Is night and day.

Are you referring to dual pixel in live view?

I'm referring to all AF. I come from 6D and 5DII where my rating with the 85 1.2 at 1.6  was about 70% and now, with 5D IV is up 90%.
