Defishing the Zenitar 16mm Fisheye Lens
 |
 |
| Uncorrected fisheye image. Zenitar 16mm on a Pentax *ist Ds |
Fisheye distortion removed with PTLens. PTLens does a nice job but chops a fair amount off of the sides. |
 |
 |
| Defished with the canvas first enlarged 113.3% horizontally to regain the sides
of the image that PTLens chops off. |
PhotoShop's Spherize filter is used to fit the image back into the original frame size. Not always a good idea as it makes the furnishings too narrow. |
With the verticals corrected.
Keeping the camera level can be important with this lens.
