Hello everybody,

 

over the weekend I camped in the alps on top of an hill using my new Sony FE 70-300mm with my Sony A7s.

 

Back home I was processing my pictures as always using Lightroom. Lightroom found the correct lens profiled and applied all settings.

 

Looking through my processed pictures I realized especially on dark pictures like the sunrise and the moon some distracting color rings.

 

I've added two pictures which I've over processed a little bit to show these distracting color rings.

 

Does anybody have the same problem or is this normal for such a telephoto lens? I've never had such a problem before. Maybe somebody can answer me.

 

Cheers Paul

    That's a lot of lens flare, did you have a filter on? was the front element absolutley clean?
