Listers,
Since I'm new (relatively) to using Rolleis, I have what is probably
a newbie question, and I think I know the answer, but I'll post anyway:
I've noticed in some of my shots that I get perspective distortion,
as in the shot just posted on my site, #1. I assume the distortion
occurred because of the camera angle. That is, the camera was lower
than the subject, pointing up, which caused the outer edges of the
image to bend inward.
When shooting portraits, I've attempted to keep the lens and subject
within the same vertical plane, to reduce distortion.
Am I correct in my assumptions, and do you folks have any tips/
tricks, etc., for me?
TIA,
Ken
