I had the same problem, but only with the aparture wide open, this happened with 70-200 VR and 70-300 4-5.6 . stepping them down a little aliminated the purple fringe all together . I shot the exact same picture with f=4/-1/1000 and then with f=8 1/250 and the fringe disapeared all together. I know that sometimes this is not an option, but it usually happens when you have a bright object i.e plenty of light.
