PTLens has been reviewed in many languages including German, Italian, and Japanese.Designed to correct distortion in architectural photographs, PTLens is illustrated in Jeff Lynchs blog, David Youngs experience with the Olympus 1240mm lens, Andrew Childress tutorial, and Ian Bramhams published image. PTLens is clearly a must have plugin and the nominal fee is more than just reasonable. View examples of PTLens at work and download the software for a free 10 image trial. Move mouse over the example image to see. We do the remaining perspective correction with the help of our Photoshop CS3 Perspective Crop Helper.Īll I can say is: PTLens welcome to the Mac. GimpLensfun is a Gimp plugin to correct lens distortion using the lensfun library and database. The corrections are very good and help to improve your images a lot. Likely the most complete database of its kind. PTLens uses its own database that stores the correction data for many lens/camera combinations. Well over 500 camera and lens combinations are. The distortion may look bad but is likely pretty good for a 14mm focal length. Supports the PTLens database from in addition to the current PTMac/LensFix databases. In this case we corrected a photo shot with the Olympus 7-14mm (14-28mm effective) lens. We only use it to correct lens distortions. Now we start using it again because it is also available for the Mac (MacIntel and 10.5 Leopard only though). These distortions get stronger with zooms and especially with wide angle zooms. The moment you photograph architecture or structures with straight lines you realize that nearly all lenses show more or less strong distortions (mostly pincushion or barrel). One of them was PTLens ( read our original review) because it worked only on PCs. A trial version only lets you work on 10 images.

Be sure to try PTLens before purchasing a license. In the future, when support is provided for the latest cameras and lenses, simply download and install the latest release. When we switched at the end of 2005 to MACs there were very few applications or plugins that we missed. PTLens is available for both Windows and OS X PCs, though the Windows version is at 8.9, while the Mac version is still at version 1.6. The license is valid for a single user, will remain valid for all future releases, and may be used on all your computers (Mac or PC). Please Visit the all new Digital Outback Photo
