Nikon 105mm 2.8G Lens is HERE

[Rick M]

Here is the image with no corrections..
The fringing around the letters is clearly visible...
This was shot at f/3.2

This lens tends to have more fringing at higher apertures. Luckily it is easily fixable. The interesting thing with this lens (and all the great macros) is you will find imperfections in your subject, things which otherwise may have given you the impression that it was the lens at fault.

In other words, with your example, is it the lens or just reflected light off the extreme edges of the letters which are imperfect themselves. Things look allot different under your new microscope

Yea for sure!
That's probably the first thing that came to my mind - if i am able to master (or get close ) to accurate focusing & shooting with this lens, any other should be a breeze!
And yeah, you are right.. it just took one click in LR for the entire fringing pattern to disappear across the image
