I find that I'm often applying subtle PC to *ist D shots made with my 15, 16 (transformed) and 20mm lenses. Simple things like shooting an coastal vista with the horizon high or low in the frame leads to vertical elements at the sides of the image distractingly leaning in or out. It's easy and painless to correct in PS however I've been practising for a while. http://home.swiftdsl.com.au/~distudio/perspective/ Rob Studdert HURSTVILLE AUSTRALIA Tel +61-2-9554-4110 UTC(GMT) +10 Hours [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://members.ozemail.com.au/~distudio/publications/ Pentax user since 1986, PDMLer since 1998
