FishEye effect on Galaxy S10 UltraWide Photos

There is a 16MP ultrawide camera fixed on the Galaxy S10E, Galaxy S10, and the Galaxy S10 Plus. This camera can take extra wide photos giving you more space to adjust more people in the photos. The problem with the ultrawide photos pops up when you shoot buildings, landscapes, and objects. The area towards the corner of the picture shows off a FishEye effect. The objects at the corners look curved. They are not curved too much to be notable. You can only note it when you keenly inspect an image.

If you are shooting ultrawide photos since day 1 and you have not noted anything wrong, chances are that you are already used to the fisheye effect in the photos. But if you just want to fix it for the sake of removing that effect, you can do so now.

Samsung has added an ultra wide shape correction feature in the camera settings of the Galaxy S10. This feature is turned off by default. If you just turn this feature on, it will fix all the ultra wide photos. Follow the steps given below to fix Galaxy S10 UltraWide Camera Distortion now.
