Color fringing

« Back to Glossary Index

Color fringing occurs when a lens does not bring all wavelengths of color to the same focal plane, and/or when wavelengths of color are focused at different positions on the focal plane, thereby producing generally purple artifacts along high-contrast borders in an image. See also LCA.
