DSC06430_14mm_BA PTLens.jpg

This Samyang (Bell&Howell branded) 14mm lens on 35mm full frame is amazingly wide and stunningly sharp but the distortion is crazy. I expected that I could correct it somewhat in software and that is to some extent true in ACR but PT Lens makes it accurate enough that I am unable to discern any geometric distortion even at 100% in Photoshop.

Sony DSLR-a850

Yes... and that’s why I bought the excellent stand-alone app and PS plug-in, PT Lens. It corrects virtually all of the geometric distortion on this lens which has a 120 degree field-of-view.

Wow, that lens bows in both dimensions!
