Lens Distortion | Substance 3D Painter

Lens Distortion

Lens Distortion is an optical phenomenon resulting in a swelling or shrinking towards the perimeter of the image. The swelling is referred to as barrel distortion, and shrinkage is referred to as pincushion distortion.
The better the camera lens, the less these phenomena will occur. This effect can be used to simulate imperfect lens and therefor more realistic images.
