Hi, I have a Panasonix LX-7, which has a multi-aspect sensor. (As opposed to most budget cameras which achieve other aspect ratios by cropping the result from the sensor) http://www.chromaticabrasion.com/blog/2012/10/23/panasonic-lx3-lx5-lx7-multiple-aspect-ratios-explanation
As such, I tend to switch between the modes (3:2, 4:3 and 16:9 - there's also 1:1 but that is a crop) quite frequently. I notice that the LX-7 is now supported by lensfun - but that the only aspect ratio in the database is 4:3. Does this mean that separate sets of distortion corrections also need to be submitted for the 3:2 and 16:9 ratios? (I've never done it before, someone else has kindly added the LX-7 at 4:3, but perhaps I could give it a shot for 3:2 and 16:9). Or is the aspect ratio only important for cropping the result? In digikam with the latest lensfun from SVN I seemed to get decent correction in a test image despite the ratio of the image being 16:9. It doesn't quite match the jpeg from the camera (I guess only commercial software like Aperture or Lightroom with closed source info from Panasonic can do that) but it's close. It did leave some curved black areas at the top and bottom of the resulting image, but digikam's "auto crop" soon eliminates that. If that's all I have to do, I'm not really concerned about it. But I don't really understand how the distortion correction works. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Put Bad Developers to Shame Dominate Development with Jenkins Continuous Integration Continuously Automate Build, Test & Deployment Start a new project now.
