Barrel Distortion

John


TS-E shot dead center with no tilt or correction right?

Correct - no tilt or shift, and I had a bubble level in the hotshoe.

I wonder how the 24mm F1.4L II would fair in this comparison. The TS-E it almost appears as none or very little. Sitting here with a ruller on the screen the TS-E still looks better to me than the corrected versions.

Nice job John. I am honestly shocked by how bad that really is!


While you were shooting these did you take any with the lens tilting up? I'd be curious to see how much that statue would start to lean if you did. I bet at that point you'd really hear people complaining about the "barrel" distortion [:P]
