Hi group,

Is there a camera that electronically corrects geometrical lens
distortions (esp. Barrel)? For the fixed-lens digital cameras out
there this should be not hard to implement. It also would
manufacturers allow to use cheaper/lighter glass on their consumer
products and still get decent image quality.

On a similar note, does anybody know a decent lens-distortion
correction software for Linux? It should be able to work on many
images automatically, without manual intervention.

Thanks,

Matthias


There may be software to correct lens imperfections:
