The Fish eye effect creates a spherical distortion similar to an ultra-wide angle lens, either bulging outward or pinching inward across the entire frame.

How it works

Fish eye applies a spherical distortion to the entire image. When the amount is positive, the image bulges outward from the center (convex distortion). When the amount is negative, the image pinches inward toward the center (concave distortion).

Unlike the Pinch effect which affects only a circular area, Fish eye distorts the entire frame with the distortion increasing toward the edges.

Use cases

  • Simulating wide-angle lens photography
  • Compensating lens distortion in existing footage
