The coma is well corrected. It can be seen on the same level for every focal length and only for a wide-open aperture. After stopping down the lens to f/4.0 the problem basically disappears.
The second commonly present abaxial failure - astigmatism - is very well corrected. The average difference between the horizontal and vertical MTF50 values measured in the center was only 4.6%.
