Color
Fringing RX
Plugin. (CFrx)
Full description and samples
The
Color Fringing RX Plugin was designed to reduce and in most cases remove
unwanted "Color Fringing" from digital files.
Color fringing
is also known as, Chromatic aberration. It is caused by the camera lens not
focusing different wavelengths of light onto the exact same focal plane and/or
by the lens magnifying different wavelengths differently. These types of
chromatic aberration are referred to as Longitudinal and Lateral Chromatic
Aberration and can occur at the same time.
Chromatic aberration is known as color fringing when it is visible around areas
of contrast. It frequently occurs around the edges of the image frame in wide-angle
shots. Since edges are the most affected areas, Color Fringing RX will first
scan areas of high contrast in the edges and then throughout the image frame
to surgically reduce all types of color aberration.
The Color Fringing RX plugin
also reduces chromatic aberration at microlens level , which in simple terms
is "purple fringing". Unlike typical edge-only chromatic aberration,
purple fringing is caused by the microlenses, and is visible throughout the
image frame. Areas of high contrast around the edges suffer the most, especially
when the subject is illuminated from behind.
NOTE: PC and MAC FM plugins are offered as separate packages. Make sure to order the correct one for your operation system.
