  2. Perspective distortion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Perspective_distortion

    The general assumption that "undoctored" photos cannot distort a scene is incorrect. Perspective distortion is particularly noticeable in portraits taken with wide-angle lenses at short camera-to-subject distances. They generally give an unpleasant impression, making the nose appear too large with respect to the rest of the face, and distorting ...

  3. Perspective control - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Perspective_control

    Picture of Notre Dame de Reims showing perspective distortion The same picture corrected. Perspective control is a procedure for composing or editing photographs to better conform with the commonly accepted distortions in constructed perspective. The control would: make all lines that are vertical in reality vertical in the image.

  4. Aerial photographic and satellite image interpretation

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aerial_photographic_and...

    Distortion refers to any change in an object's or region's location on an aerial photo that modifies its original features and shapes. [2] It usually appears near the picture's border. [2] There are two causes of distortion. The first one is the tilt and tip of a plane. [4] When the aircraft is rising or descending it produces a tip. [4]

  5. Tilt–shift photography - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tilt–shift_photography

    The 1961 35 mm f / 3.5 PC-Nikkor lens—the first perspective-control lens for a 35 mm camera. In photography, a perspective-control lens allows the photographer to control the appearance of perspective in the image; the lens can be moved parallel to the film or sensor, providing the equivalent of corresponding view camera movements.

  6. Anamorphosis - Wikipedia

    When seen from a tower at their base, the gathered people resolved into recognizable pictures. [8] Marcel Duchamp was interested in anamorphosis. His last work Given: 1. The Waterfall, 2. The Illuminating Gas (1946–66) used mild anamorphosis to force viewers into the position of peep-hole voyeurs in order to see a nude, anonymous human body. [1]

  7. Circle of confusion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Circle_of_confusion

    Diagram showing circles of confusion for point source too close, in focus, and too far. In optics, a circle of confusion (CoC) is an optical spot caused by a cone of light rays from a lens not coming to a perfect focus when imaging a point source.

  8. Distortion (optics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Distortion_(optics)

    In geometric optics, distortion is a deviation from rectilinear projection; a projection in which straight lines in a scene remain straight in an image.It is a form of optical aberration that may be distinguished from other aberrations such as spherical aberration, coma, chromatic aberration, field curvature, and astigmatism in a sense that these impact the image sharpness without changing an ...

  9. Image stitching - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image_stitching

    Lines that are straight in reality are shown as straight regardless of their directions on the image. Wide views – around 120° or so – start to exhibit severe distortion near the image borders. One case of rectilinear projection is the use of cube faces with cubic mapping for panorama viewing. Panorama is mapped to six squares, each cube ...
