If you dare try to correct these geometric distortions in your image editor with a Perspective control, say, you probably didn't dare twice. If it's a group of people, the guys on the end will have their heads reshaped in grotesque ways. That's the distortion of things at the left and right edges of the image.
If you do that to people by shooting from a low angle, their heads are ridiculously tiny compared to their hands, say.īut the one no one laughs about is becoming increasingly common as zoom lenses get wider and wider. Unfortunately all the verticals that are obviously parallel in real life, converge almost comically in your photo as they rise. You're standing in front of a famous building, you whip out your camera and, point up to include the roof line, you shoot.
The most common distortion is one you may not even be bothered by: converging verticals. That pretty much sums up our smile as we sat through a briefing on DxO Labs' new tool to fix some distortions we've all had to live with for a while.
