250 THE HASSELBLAD MANUAL
Figure 14-13 Wide angle distortion. The 50 mm wide angle lens records the front of the
face of the mask from Thailand when the mask is straight in front of the lens and
faces the lens. (A) Placed at the side, the same lens photographs the mask from the side.
(B) With the mask in the same position at the side but turned to face the center of the lens,
the image is practically identical to the one photographed from the front. (Photo by Ernst
