Right, I am not knocking your review, it is valid as any.
Now, I like to begin by saying that if you think I have said anything false and lied in any way then I apologise and will retract such statement, it is not my intention to be offensive as illustrated by the many use the smilies. My attempt was humour, even if it does not translate as well over the written form (thus the smilies).
Second, if you take this offence to this post, then I also apologise as it is not my intention.
Now, it is clear, at least to me, in the past month, to me, you have gained a reputation of a person who put technical brilliance of camera gear above all else, or at least on a VERY high regard. I do too, but to me, you have taken it on a completely whole different stratosphere with your many many links to articles, tests, videos, on topics such as AA, DR, weather sealing, shutter noise and the list goes on. So it was surprising to me, to see a photo from you, with that much CA. Not because there is anything wrong with that, as I said it in that post, we've all posted photos with CA, one not so long ago and mrk pointed out to me. But coming from you was a big surprise.
Unless you don't venture into General Discussion forum on this board, for example, a person who is a grammar nazi and if he or she corrects someone's grammar in GD, he or she better watch his posts with the strictest scrutiny as it will be picked apart by others. It is expected.
Thus the line of "What is good for the goose must be good for the gander".
When you have illustrated to everyone that you hold technical perfection to such high regard, and then follow with a photo with a technical fault that can be fixed so easily in software, you open yourself up to criticism. Not just in grammar or photography, so many walks of life this takes place.
In that post I even tried to do it with humour, by admitting myself have also posted photos with CA, admitting that I am also no means perfect. The post are merely "yanking your chain", "pulling your leg", joking with you. There may not be a smilie in that post but it also wasn't a lie, there is CA in that photo.
I am sorry you took offence. It was not my intention Rhys.
Water under the bridge?
That will definitely put a strain on lenses.
