Select On to reduce barrel distortion in
photos taken with wide-angle lenses and to
reduce pin-cushion distortion in photos
taken with long lenses (note that the edges
of the area visible in the viewfinder may be
cropped out of the final photograph, and
that the time needed to process photographs before recording
begins may increase).
This option does not apply to movies and is
available only with type G and D lenses (PC, fisheye, and certain
other lenses excluded); results are not guaranteed with other
lenses. Before using auto distortion control with DX lenses, select
On for Auto DX crop or choose an image area of DX (24×16) 1.5×
(0 80); selecting other options may result in heavily cropped
photographs or in photographs with severe peripheral distortion.
