Title: CR2 correction Post by: Anthony on September 30, 2019, 11:40:51 AM Occasionally, an incorrect setting on our classroom camera (Canon G7 X Mark II) is chosen, and raw photos are taken. These appear in QU as slightly curved, as though taken through a fish-eye lens, and the corners have dark shaded curves in them. If I open one of these CR2 photos using the Windows 10 photo app, it displays as I would expect it to for about a second, and then the whole fish-eye / dark shading view is imposed on the image. Can Qimage correct this, please? Note: I am not a professional photographer (but QU is brilliant for our purposes) so apologies if that makes the advice more difficult.

I've been able to do it by request but it requires that you take pictures of a grid (I usually suggest tiles in a shower) at varying zooms from wide angle to full telephoto. But I suspect that's more effort than you want to partake in this case.
