Palm Tanager (Thraupis palmarum) A Palm Tanager on an overcast day. I took this photo last year, while I was still learning the basics of bird photography (and I still am), I used my low megapixel body and my 75-300mm kit lens to take this photo. I noticed there is a lot of chromatic aberration but I still decided to upload it lol.

    If you wouldn't have mentioned it, would not have noticed the aberration. Posted 4 years ago

      Then I probably shouldn't have mentioned that lol. I find that those kit lenses really tend to cause the chromatic aberration because for the past six months I've been using a Sigma 150-600mm Contemporary and I've not gotten any aberration since. Posted 4 years ago

        Definitely true that it shows up more in cheaper glass, in particular in white sky photos (backlight). It can be somewhat fixed in post processing. Posted 4 years ago
