28/2 distortion correction


Recommended Posts

Hi all.

 

I recently picked up a 28/2 to replace my 35/2.8 as my wider option. I'm very impressed with the results so far, but shooting raw it's closer to 26mm in the vf. This makes it a bit harder to compose towards the edge of the frame (as you have to guess where the crop will be).

 

Is there an option to enable camera correction when shooting raw? I appreciate that the output won't be affected but it's be nice to get an idea of how it'll look corrected when I compose the photo.

I've done a bit more testing and it looks like the problem is actually the DXO Optics Pro 10 module for the 28/2.  The "corrected" version is actually more heavily distorted than the out of camera raw, but also strongly cropped, which was making me think that what I was seeing in camera wasn't corrected. If you're using DXO, I strongly recommend not using the default profile for the time being and manually using 17 barrel distortion to correct it.  I've asked them to look into it, so hopefully they'll fix the module...
