Jim,
Most native lenses have a RAW CA correction built-in (applied), even if the corrections are turned OFF in-camera. The CV 40/1.2 does not have that and to reduce LaCA in Lightroom, a profile correction needs to be applied (LR has a profile for this lens) OR "Remove Chromatic Aberration" needs to be checked.

I don't remember if I checked that box in Lightroom for those samples but this lens shows noticeable lateral CA when uncorrected. Aberration control is definitely not it's forte.


Has anybody done this for CaptureOne?

You can. I've only had the lens two days, but there may or may not be in-camera corrections applied, and a "Manufacturer" (as distinct from "Generic" profile shows up in C1 by default on import. I'm using an a7 without any firmware update, so I can only assume the lens is able to transmit some sort of data to the camera - along with distance and aperture - without the camera knowing specifically *which* lens is being used.

Technology is a magical, magical thing.

I've turned off the in-camera settings, and turn off all automatic corrections when I import into C1, because I want to get a feel for how this lens behaves "in the raw" before I start applying corrections willy-nilly. There is definitely CA in heavily backlit foliage shots, but it's definitely easy to fix in C1 via Lens Corrections or Layers, if you prefer a local adjustment.

The shot of my kiddo with a bagel had zero corrections applied, and defaults off in-camera as well as in C1, so you can see that it's still quite impressive without any corrections.
