Is there a Canon mount (Canon or other brand) portrait lens that you can use very wide open without CA?
Just saw an image from a Canon 85mm 1.8 at 1.8 and there was CA all over the place
The older EF, non-L Lenses (50/1.4, 85/1.8) have more CA. In photos where that matters, I will not choose those. The focus ring of my 50/1.4 always gets stuck anyways, so it's not like I get much use out of it anymore.
On the cheap end of the spectrum, EF50/1.8 has very well controlled CA, nearly all of which can be corrected in post. As mentioned above, the new 85/1.4 is also excellent -- but, obviously, a lot more money
Also, the 70-200/2.8 and 100L/2.8 are both quite good in controlling chromatic aberration.
