Create copies with reduced peripheral distortion; this can reduce barrel distortion in pictures taken with wide-angle lenses or pin-cushion distortion in pictures taken with telephoto lenses. Select [Auto] to let the camera correct distortion automatically and then make fine adjustments using the multi selector. Select [Manual] to reduce distortion manually.
- The effect can be previewed in the edit display.
- Note that [Manual] must be used with copies created using the [Auto] option and with photos taken using the [Auto distortion control] option in the photo shooting menu. Manual distortion control cannot be further applied to copies created using [Manual].
- Press 4 to reduce pincushion distortion, 2 to reduce barrel distortion.
- Press J to save the retouched copy.
Distortion control
Note that greater amounts of distortion control result in more of the edges being cropped out.
