Chromatic Aberration

Color fringing that occurs in real camera lenses

What It Does

Simulates color fringing that occurs in real camera lenses, where different wavelengths of light focus at slightly different points.

How It Affects Your Image

  • Subtle red/blue color separation near edges
  • More pronounced toward the corners of the frame
  • Adds lens character and authenticity
  • Creates a sense of optical imperfection
