Have you ever come across really stubborn, hard to remove chromatic aberration? You know, that unsightly green or purple (or both!) coloured fringing on the edges of highlights?

Craig has covered how to use the eyedropper in Lightroom to deal with it (check out this video if you need a refresher), but they aren't always effective in auto mode and often need some additional tweaking.

In this tutorial, I'll demonstrate some advanced solutions for dealing with stubborn chromatic aberration in Lightroom, plus a sneaky method for when it's super stubborn, in Photoshop. This will be invaluable for photographers looking to print their work - which is where you'll really notice this issue!
