Distortion (optics)

ID: distortion-optics

In optics, distortion refers to the deviation of an image from the ideal shape or proportions of the object that is being photographed or viewed through a lens system. Unlike other optical aberrations, such as spherical aberration or chromatic aberration, distortion specifically affects the geometry of the image rather than its sharpness or color fidelity.
