"Lens correction" refers to the process of correcting distortions caused by the use of certain lenses or cameras. These distortions can take various forms, including barrel distortions, pincushion distortions, and chromatic aberrations. Lens correction is used to reduce or eliminate these distortions to achieve a more accurate and natural representation of images.
Typical features of software in the realm of "lens correction" include:
Automatic profile adjustment: The software can automatically detect and apply profiles for different lenses and cameras to correct the specific distortions of these devices.
Manual adjustment options: Users have the option to make manual adjustments to the lens correction parameters to tailor the corrections to their own preferences and needs.
Barrel and pincushion distortions: The software can correct barrel and pincushion distortions to restore straight lines in images and achieve a more natural perspective.
Chromatic aberration: The software can correct chromatic aberrations by minimizing or eliminating color shifts at the edges of objects in the image.
Batch processing: The ability to apply lens corrections to multiple images simultaneously to speed up the workflow when editing large batches of images.
