Hi,

I'd like all your thoughts on how to reduce/eliminate
pincushioning on taking pictures of box-shaped objects
at close-range.

Example:
I took a picture of a box, about the size of an O'Reilly boox, about 7-8 inches away. The box appears slightly pincushioned when viewing on my PC.

Thanks.

Thanks, that did the trick!

So do most cameras have that little wrinkle? Or is it specific to just Nikon's and Canon's?
