Donny, there is no fisheye off feature on the camera. The fisheye comes from the ultra-wide angle lens, which allows you to work without a view finder. The only method of reducing this is to get very close to what you are videoing or edit it out in the software. The lens is equivalent to a 10mm camera lens. Standard wide angle lenses begin at about 28-mm. The lower the number, the wider the angle. Wide angle lenses, such as this one, allowed you to see 90 percent of my office interior. The only part you couldn't see is all the sailboat stuff, sails, radar, electronics, bags, life jackets, etc..., that were piled up to the right side of the camera. It's not a big deal, and most of the action shots you see on YouTube today are filmed with ultra-wide angle lenses, but no one seems to notice, mainly because there are very few straight lines outdoors to reference the video to.
Take a look at
All the best,
Gary
