Yeah it does look reverse to me but that was not due to correction. It came out of the camera that way. I do not think the 90D has a vignetting correction in it...I don't recall seeing a setting for it. I shot these the way I normally do. Photoshop has a lens correction tool but it doesn't always work.

Just looking for any advise for both spotting and airshows while using a Sony mirrorless camera. I use a A7R V with a Sigma 100-400mm and a 150-600mm lens. Jus trying to improve my photo quality. Right now most of my photo's from my last airshow came out a bit blurry. I do use auto focus and had it set to continuous AF but I'm wondering if that was my problem. Should I use manual or is there another AF setting I should try? Statistics: Posted by yoshua16 — Mon Apr 22, 2024 9:02 am ..read more

"Even if you aren't, the sky is not uniformly blue. At wide angles, you will capture this phenomenon in your picture." Can you show an example? Statistics: Posted by yanr — Mon Apr 15, 2024 11:31 am ..read more

No, I took off all the filters. Statistics: Posted by Bruce — Mon Apr 15, 2024 6:10 am ..read more

Are you using a polarizing filter? That will accentuate the effects of light fall-off in the sky. Even if you aren't, the sky is not uniformly blue. At wide angles, you will capture this phenomenon in your picture. https://www.klassik-cameras.de/vignettes.html Statistics: Posted by yanr — Mon Apr 15, 2024 12:24 am ..read more

I am having a problem with vignetting in photos taken against a clear blue sky. In the most recent cases, they were shot with the Canon 10-22 lens from 10mm to around 15, and I don't notice it as much when photos are shot at 22mm. What is causing this? Is it a problem with the lens or are my shooting settings wrong? 1/1600th & f7.1 or f8 , partial metering, and most importantly how do I get rid of it? I know that Photoshop has the lens correction tool which I have used but with limited success. I don't know what good settings are to get rid of it. Is there another way?
