Photography issue, looks like mis-registration?

I’ve been noticing this blue/orange effect in my photos. This is a close up of some black text on white background. The printing is in black and white only.

The blue and orange coloured halo does not appear in real life, only in my photos.

Any idea what this is called and how to correct it in camera?

Ahh, Chromatic Aberration. It’s an annoying digital artifact. I usually adjust in RAW. Not sure about in-camera fixes.

This can be fixed in Lightroom or with the Lens Correction option within Photoshop.

Thanks Steve_O, found it. So easy with an action too.
