It's interesting that you mention CAs in the context of lens tests... because it's one issue I stumbled into with the relaunch of the DX section. When calibrating the RAW workflow for the MTF results with the D7200, i ended up with reasonable results for several lenses (compared to earlier tests on the D7000), however depending on the parameters chosen the CA results on the D7200 ended up a tad lower than on the D7000 (the absolute (!) values).

I can confirm by now that this is an effect of the newer version of the Raw converter I use for MTF (iridient Developer 1.9.3 vs 3.1.4). The newer converter consistently gives lower CA results (and a tad lower MTF, too) when processing the same NEF files.

To get back to the original question: I'd love to test them, but wanted to avoid buying those lenses. That's why I got in contact with both Lowa and Irix at photokina last year, but especially Irix (or actually their distributor) did not get back to me since, unfortunately.

At least for Nikon, I can unfortunately not promise reviews of those lenses "any time soon". I keep trying to get my hands on these lenses, but there is a bunch of reviews to work on already Wink
