rubens_t_vora Posted March 15, 2009 Share Posted March 15, 2009 <p>Dear,<br> Usually and reading lens reviews, CA always comes as a problem in some lenses and have penalty for this issue . Otherwise, those reviewers use to say that post-processing would resolve it! How come?<br> I tried in Lightroom that has sliders to this, in Photoshop also and never got any good result applied to any color fringing. <br> (Shooting with Nikon 180mm f/2,8 and other Nikon lenses )<br> Any Help? <br> Tks, Rubens</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lex_jenkins Posted March 15, 2009 Share Posted March 15, 2009 <p>Not all CA correction tools are created equal. The easiest to use by far, and remarkably effective, of several I've tried are the two in Corel Paint Shop Pro X. There are two: one for the usual chromatic aberration that can affect any film or digital camera; and a second for the purplish fringing that's unique to digital. Try the free trialware download and see if you like anything about the program enough to add it to your toolbox. Overall PSP is comparable to Photoshop Elements. Some folks like the interface, some don't.</p> <p>The alternative is a brush tool to selectively remove the offending CA. A hassle but workable with most full featured photo editing programs.</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rolubich Posted March 16, 2009 Share Posted March 16, 2009 <p>If you shot RAW Capture NX2 automatically correct longitudinal CA in a very good way (see picture taken with 180mm AIS). NX2 can't do a lot for longitudinal CA and purple fringes.</p> <p> </p><div></div> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bjørn rørslett Posted March 16, 2009 Share Posted March 16, 2009 <p>It's lateral CA (also denoted transversal CA) that is quite easily corrected with many modern programs. Longitudinal CA unfortunately is very tricky to deal with.</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peter_k4 Posted March 16, 2009 Share Posted March 16, 2009 <p>Hey Roberto does NX2 do that with all nikon raw files? Or just the ones from the D300 and newer that has the in-camera CA software?</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rolubich Posted March 16, 2009 Share Posted March 16, 2009 <p>It works with D40x too so I think it should work with any Nikon DSLR.</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peter_k4 Posted March 16, 2009 Share Posted March 16, 2009 <p>Holy it does! I was always wanting a D300 cause of that feature. I now have a renewed contentment with my D200 that'll last me another year!</p> <p>thanks!</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
