Are you talking about Purple Fringing? (Do a google search pls)
If that's the one, yes. It is dependent on the quality of the lens.

"To date there is no clear single item that is responsible for purple fringing. We do know that is most likely to happen when apertures of greater than f/4 are used, when a wide angle of 28mm (or equivalent) or wider is used and when the subject to background contrast is high. Since it is most likely to happen under those conditions, avoid that combination if possible. To remedy some of these problems it seems to be most advisable to use a lens hood or shield the lens from light raking directly a crossed it."
