Personally, I like clinically sharp lenses, I also like lenses that don't have insane amounts of CA. In many case these two aspects are joined at the hip. Unfortunately for me, this lens doesn't fit bill.

Sounds like you would be a perfect candidate for the Sigma Art. Clinically sharp with little ca. Have you tried it?

Yeah, that would be a great option, but I tend to hold on the lenses for quite some time and third party lenses tend to get problematic a couple of camera body generations in (needing firmware flashes and what not). While Sigma looks to be worth a try, I simply prefer first party.
