What is Lens Aberration?
Lens aberration refers to the imperfections that occur when light passes through a lens, distorting the image. These occur due to the geometry and materials of the lens. They cause light rays to spread out or focus inaccurately. Aberrations affect the clarity, brightness, and colour of images.
Aberrations can degrade the quality of an image by causing blurriness, light halos, and color fringing. The impact of these aberrations becomes noticeable in high-resolution photography where even minor flaws in image clarity are visible.
Aberration of Lens
Aberration of the lens refers to the failure of a lens to produce a perfect image. It occurs due to the lens’s geometry and light’s physical properties. There are several lens aberrations, each affecting the image in different ways.
In this article, we will discuss lens aberration, its types, corrections methods, and many more in detail.
