Tips for fixing chromatic aberration
Chromatic aberration is one of the most common image problems, and also one of the easiest to fix. Aperture has a special tool for fixing chromatic aberration, coincidentally called Chromatic Aberration.
Using it is actually fairly straightforward, so you may be wondering why it is featured here, but there are actually a few tricks that can make it a bit easier to work with when working on multiple images. What follows is a selection of tip and tricks for using the chromatic aberration tool:
