: How do i recreate this low quality camera, really zoomed in photograph: How can i recreate this effect on my images? I assume, i need some kind of chromatic aberration and making the resolution

@Alves566

This is your photo as more inferiorized




overexposure added by twisting Image > Adjustments > Curves
old videotape or analog camera horizontal sync jitter simulated by Filter > Distort > Waves
simulated heavy compression by saving as JPG quality = 2, reloaded
heavy noise reduction effect added Filter > Noise > Noise reduction, (this reduced also exessive already added simulated chromatic aberration)


Saved and uploaded to GDCSE

The noise reduction maybe is not heavy enough - not enough smudged areas. As another answer suggested, noise can be added. This is to get more work to noise reduction.

With the image you provided, try applying curves like this which will increase all tones and blow out the highlights):



Then apply another curves command like this (which will bring many of the tones back down toward normal, but will leave the highlights clipped and will reinforce your chromatic aberration):



I applied a gaussian blur filter at 2 pixels followed by the unsharp mask at about 90% and a radius of 4.5 pixels.

After that, try saving as a low-quality jpeg.
