Anyone have one? If so, what's it like with a digital body? (either full frame sensor or a 1.6x) Any issues with chromatic aberration?

have scoured the usual sites, doesn't seem to have any issues

thinking of getting the manfrotto 393 head for monopod, anyone have one or can suggest a suitable alternative for larger lenses?

primes have superb image quality with very little chromatic aberration. Check out something like a gimbal head or something similar from Manfrotto.

was just wondering about it because they brought out the extra-coated dg lenses to counteract (amongst other things) chromatic abberation
