CA (lateral chromatic aberration) is denoted as colours splitting and becomes most obvious the further from the centre of the frame. It's remedied by applying a transform to each colour layer that will shrink or increase the magnification of each layer relative to the centre of the frame in order to bring them back into registration. A good article is available here: http://www.caldwellphotographic.com/TutorialsDistortionAndColorFringing.html It's handled much better in the PS CS RAW convertor.
