5.5.1. Overview
Figure 17.61. Example for the “Lens Distortion” filter
Original image
“Lens Distortion” applied
This filter lets you simulate but also correct the typical distortion effect introduced in photo images by the glasses contained in the camera lenses.
5.5.2. Activating the filter
This filter is found in the image window menu under Filters → Distorts → Lens Distortion….
5.5.3. Options
Figure 17.62. “Lens Distortion” options
The allowed range of all options is from -100.0 to 100.0.
Presets, “Input Type”, Clipping, Blending Options, Preview, Split view

These options are described in Section 2, “Common Features”. |
Main
The amount of spherical correction to introduce. Positive values make the image convex while negative ones make it concave. The whole effect is similar to wrapping the image inside or outside a sphere.

Edge
Specifies the amount of additional spherical correction at image edges.

Zoom
Specifies the amount of the image enlargement or reduction caused by the hypothetical lens.

Shift X, Shift Y
These two options specify the shift of the image produced by not perfectly centered pairs of lenses.
As above this option produces visible results only if the Main or Edge options are non zero.

-100.0

+100.0
Brighten
The amount of the “vignetting” effect: the brightness decrease/increase due to the lens curvature that produces a different light absorption.
The Main or Edge options must be non zero for this option to produce noticeable results.
