Hi Mile,
I presume the purple color in the mid-picture owes more to the lens than to the
sensor. I may be wrong of course.
In LR I just have to click once to get rid of this artifact when perceived -
and it doesn't happen so often with the fuji lenses I use.
It was much trickier with legacy lenses I have to admit, but the same applied -
somewhat differently - with the pans, the Nikon, and the Olies before.
