Fortunately, there are a few alternative ways to get the same look. As is often the case in this era of digital technology, some image-editing packages such as Adobe Photoshop and Photoshop Elements can be used to introduce the signature distortion.<\/p>\n<p>The easiest way to mimic the appearance of an image shot through a fisheye lens is to use the Spherize filter, but this only works on a central circular portion of the picture. Careful selection is required to remove the surrounding undistorted section of the image so that the circular fisheye look is created.<\/p>\n<p>Another more satisfactory approach uses Photoshop&#8217;s Warp transformation. This is much more flexible than the Spherize filter and allows the photographer to stretch and distort the image to taste and still produce a rectangular picture with the original aspect ratio.<\/p>\n<h2>How to Create a Fisheye Effect in Photoshop \u2013 Diagonal Fisheye Look<\/h2>\n<p><strong><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-1656 alignnone\" title=\"creating a fisheye lens look with cs4 - original\" src=\"http:\/\/www.phototechnique.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/08\/OrigCS41-199x300.jpg\" alt=\"creating a fisheye lens look with cs4 - original image\" width=\"199\" height=\"300\" \/><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Step 1 <\/strong>&#8211; Open the image and select it all using Select&gt;All (Ctl+A).

The software is accessed via Filter&gt;ePaperPress&gt;PTLens.<\/p>\n<p>The adjustments are all straightforward. Simply select the Fisheye option near the bottom middle of the control panel and move the Distortion sliding control to correct the image.<\/p>\n<p>The image contorts into a bow-tie shape as it is adjusted, and although it is possible to crop the image within PTLens I prefer to do it afterwards as it is often necessary to level the horizon and there&#8217;s less restriction on the size ratio.<\/p>\n<p>The chromatic aberration controls are useful when the coloured fringing is problematic.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>If you can&#8217;t afford a fisheye lens, there is an alternative in the form of image-editing software&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":323,"featured_media":39051,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[210],"tags":[],"product-category":[],"class_list":["post-1649","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-photo_editing"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v26.8 (Yoast SEO v26.8) - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-premium-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>How to Create a Fisheye Effect in Photoshop<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"If you can&#039;t afford a fisheye lens, there is an alternative in the form of image-editing software.

After bike-packing the length of France in her teens with her family, she started to undertake solo adventures in her 20s. Always a keen swimmer, she discovered a love of wild water 15 years ago, and has since swum the Dart 10k three times, qualified as a swim coach and learned to freedive. She is formerly editor of Advnture.com and deputy editor of Mountain Biking UK magazine and jumps at the chance to swim somewhere slightly muddy and remote, no matter how cold the water.","sameAs":["https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/iswim.likeagirl\/"],"url":"https:\/\/other.kelsey.host\/amateurphotographer\/author\/roseewoodland\/"}]}},"acf":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/other.kelsey.host\/amateurphotographer\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/16\/2012\/08\/Statuefisheye_copy-thumbnail.jpg","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"publishpress_future_action":{"enabled":false,"date":"2026-04-22 20:18:18","action":"change-status","newStatus":"draft","terms":[],"taxonomy":"category","extraData":[]},"publishpress_future_workflow_manual_trigger":{"enabledWorkflows":[]},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/other.kelsey.host\/amateurphotographer\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1649","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/other.kelsey.host\/amateurphotographer\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/other.kelsey.host\/amateurphotographer\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/other.kelsey.host\/amateurphotographer\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/323"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/other.kelsey.host\/amateurphotographer\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1649"}],"version-history":[{"count":20,"href":"https:\/\/other.kelsey.host\/amateurphotographer\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1649\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":39052,"href":"https:\/\/other.kelsey.host\/amateurphotographer\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1649\/revisions\/39052"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/other.kelsey.host\/amateurphotographer\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/39051"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/other.kelsey.host\/amateurphotographer\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1649"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/other.kelsey.host\/amateurphotographer\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1649"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/other.kelsey.host\/amateurphotographer\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1649"},{"taxonomy":"product-category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/other.kelsey.host\/amateurphotographer\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product-category?post=1649"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
