Cheap cameras
[edit]"The popularity of amateur photography has made distorted photos made with cheap cameras so familiar that many people do not immediately realise the distortion. " The distortion of cheap cameras, has nothing to do with perspective distortion.
Barrel distortion may make the top of a building look smaller but another cheap lens could have pin cushion distortion which is the opposite. If a photo is taken with the camera pointing up at a tall building with a lens with pin cushion distortion this would actually correct the distortion more than an expensive camera.

- I think the author means "anything except a view camera" = cheap . Which is neither accurate (Tachihara field camera = $1000, kitted out = $2000, Leica m9 = $7000), nor NPOV=== Brett Buck (talk) 04:25, 12 April 2013 (UTC)
- This paragraph should be removed. It is neither accurate or related to the topic. The paragraph before it and the entire article is talking about removing converging lines so that the focal plane is parallel to the object and perpendicular to the ground.
