LensDistortion node¶
This documentation is for version 4.0 of LensDistortion (net.sf.openfx.LensDistortion).
Description¶
Add or remove lens distortion, or produce an STMap that can be used to apply that transform.
The region of definition of the transformed image is computed from the region of definition of the Source input. If the input is defined outside of the project format, this may result in a very large region. A Crop effect may be inserted before LensDistortion to avoid this. If the input region of definition is inside the format, the Crop To Format parameter may be used to avoid expanding it.
LensDistortion can directly apply distortion/undistortion, but if the distortion parameters are not animated, the most efficient way to use LensDistortion and avoid repeated distortion function calculations is the following:
- If the footage size is not the same as the project size, insert a FrameHold plugin between the footage to distort or undistort and the Source input of LensDistortion. This connection is only used to get the size of the input footage.
- Set Output Mode to “STMap” in LensDistortion.
- feed the LensDistortion output into the UV input of STMap, and feed the footage into the Source input of STMap.
This plugin concatenates transforms upstream.
