Photography/Imaging (& Graphic Arts)
English term or phrase: high-contrast edges of subjects
Each focal length has its own individual optical design with the use of special types of glass displaying anomalous partial dispersion.
This reduces the occurrence of color fringes at high-contrast edges of subjects to an absolute minimum.

transitions de contraste élevé


Explanation:
(sur les sujets)

Personally, I feel 'of subjects' is redundant and would only serve to make the FR unnecessarily cumbersome. In the given context, it couldn't be edges of anything else.

  -> In electronic imaging parlance, an 'edge' is often referred to as a 'transition'.
