The Sonnar abberations are spheric abberation and coma, most apparent when shot wide open and in faster Sonnars (50 \ 1.5 Sonnar, Zeiss-Opton, Jupiter 3), near the edges of the frame, of course. When you see them, you see them, and they are actually very pleasing indeed. Too lazy to find an example, but there are plenty in the RFF galleries
I scan with a Canon FS2710, it might just not see the problem at 2720dpi.
I have this as 11x17 hanging on a wall and there I can't find purple fringing but if my memory serves me, it was stopped down to f4 and I had a B&W skylight on the lens.
Thanks Socke for answerring, but I think that the key word in you message is f4
This reminds me the test of Jupiter-3 at f2 (sonnar scheme) - all the same,to much more extent though
I don't think the Contax G Sonnar 90 has much in common with a Jupiter-3. Starting at the focal lenght over glas to coating.
The purple fringing you have in your picture looks too close to that in digital cameras where it's usualy caused by reflections between the back element and the sensor or parts of the sensor like lowpass filter and infrared filter and it doesn't change with the aperture.
