One thing I have to work on with my video is to make sure the camera is position the same distance and correct height on easy swing or making comparisons to previous swings is futile.

Same lens or amount of zoom too. The wider the lens the more parallel lines converge or bend even. Im not a photographer but I work with them and think the naked eye is about the same as a 22 or 24 mm lens or something. A fish eye lens makes straight lines look weird. Some one help me out here, TAG!

Yep, when using a wide angle lens the the image bends or 'distorts' more and more as you move toward the perimeter of the frame. The image distortion increases as the lens size decreases.

Here's an example.



More importantly, perspective distortion increases when the camera is not aligned perpendicularly to the subject.

Absolutely imperative! A couple of informative lines are the tush line from DTL and the lead hip line FO (both will reveal a proper or improper pivot).
