Removing purple fringing

Capture One features a specifically designed tool to remove purple fringing. It includes a familiar slider allowing control over the intensity, as well as the typical options to save the resulting set to the adjustments clipboard or as a preset. Both of those allow the setting to be applied to multiple images. Although the Purple Fringing tool is offered as a standalone control for global corrections, purple fringing removal can also be applied locally, using an adjustments layer. As a result, the Purple Fringing tool can be found under the Lens tool tab as well as the Local Adjustments tool tab.

1. Go the Lens tool tab and select the Purple Fringing tool.
   
   
   
   
2. Zoom to at least 100% in an area displaying a fringe with a purple hue along a high contrast edge. Note that the inclusion of complementary cyan, magenta, or yellow-green fringes usually indicates chromatic aberration.
   
   
3. To reduce the intensity of the purple fringing, drag the slider to the right. If the fringing is severe, it may not be possible to remove it entirely.
   
   
4. The setting can be copied and applied to other image files using local copy and apply.
   
   
   
   Also, the settings from the Purple Fringing tool can be saved as a User Preset if required and later applied to other images.
