Hi,
I was using my new D850 for the second time today and noticed that, in some shots, what I framed does not match exactly what I see in the corresponding file (both in the camera monitor and the desktop computer). In some cases, lines were curved instead of being straight. In others, the horizon line was inclined left of right, instead of being in the horizontal. The general feeling is that the camera is distorting what I see in the mirror. The lens is an old 70-200mm f2.8 VR and I never noticed any problem with my previous D300s and my older D70. I also have a feeling that a similar, but less pronounced problem is also happening with my 17-35mm f2.8 (also old). Has anybody seen this before? Looks like a camera or a lens problem? How can I be sure? Any suggestion of further tests?
Thanks,
Marcus.
P.S. In the samples above, all lines should be straight. They were straight in the viewfinder and they appear inclined or curved in the LCD screen and also in the desktop computer's monitor.
