I think these are chromatic aberration of the camera lens, problem
will be seen on strong light different area. I have checked many XA
shots and this is the worse one, some are lighter and 950f my other
XA shots have no noticeable problem.

I think the dark corners is not related to leave shutter, the 35SP,
35RD and my Bronica SAQ didn't have this problem. For me, I will never
trust AF (without viewfinder verification, no! not the AF ok led, I
need a focusing screen verification).
