The wider the lens the closer the object in the printed picture.
Have you ever taken a picture of a tall building and had the top be narrower than the bottom of the building? There are lenses that alter the plane of a tall object by stopping it from converging. With the tilt of a lens up or down and the slide of the lens left or right, you can increase the sidewalk and the sky size or decrease them. Photography is manipulation of the environment to get as realistic as possible a replica of what the eye sees.
Instructions
1. Lift the lens so it points upward. This small adjustment to the lens moves the aiming point of the camera away from the center of the frame as seen through the lens.
2. Push the lens down and the adjustment moves the object out of center creating a perpendicular plane.
3. Slide the lens to the left and the distance of everything you see in the plane through the lens becomes more apparent on the left.
4. Take the lens and slide it to the right and the center distance rotates the plane creating a parallel center to the lens on the right.
