  This assuming you don't mind that your render will take 5 days instead
of 5 minutes...

  That's a question of modelling, not so much a question of rendering.
The lenses are "perfect" because they have been modelled to be perfect.
If you want an imperfect lens, then create one.

  And if what you want is a noisy image, use the Gimp to add it.
