3.4.1 Correction of Lens Distortion (B036 and B041 Only)

If you are using a camera with either the B036
or B041 wide-angle lenses, the image, par-
ticularly around the edges, may be slightly
distorted due to the extreme angle of view
of the lenses.
You can suppress this effect using software
(for example, in the browser) so that a new
and appropriately corrected image can be
displayed live. A side effect of this correction,
however, is that a cushion shape appears
around the edges of the image.
To hide this cushion effect, you simply have
to Zoom In on the image slightly. Although
this reduces the size of the captured area, the
image is almost distortion-free compared
to the original.
