Distortion correction method, distortion correction program, image processing apparatus, interchangeable lens, camera, and camera system
In a distortion correcting method for an image taken by an optical system, the invention makes it possible to increase the calculation accuracy of distortion of an image while reducing the amount of information to be prepared in advance. To this end, approximation information that is obtained when distortion aberration (A) of the optical system is approximated by a function (SA: A(f, d)) of a shooting condition (d, f) that is set in the optical system is prepared in advance, and distortion of an image taken by the optical system is calculated based on the shooting condition that was set when the image was taken and the approximation information prepared in advance. Though being small in information amount, this approximation information makes it possible to calculate distortion aberration under every shooting condition.
