i have a digital rebel xt
picture from yesterday
the photo is blurred and kind of distorted along the top...what is causing this?
camera in "action" mode since i was doing a sequence
autofocus: ai servo
metering: pattern (?)

but lots of my pictures are doing this. is it because of the metering? i don't know a lot about the metering, i don't have the manual, can anyone help me out?

Oh my god, is that chromatic aberration?

Try posting a picture in which the top part is much less contrasting so we can judge...

Can I have your camera?

I'll put it to better use than you are.

it could be chromatic aberration...i don't really have any other pictures where it looks that severe

i messed around with the settings today and seem to be getting clear shots now

Sure he can. But if he does something stupid like post it on /p/, he gets thrown to the fucking wolves. And rightfully so.
