When scrolling through galleries of photos for residential (and some commercial) properties, it always seems like the perspective is off. But each picture seems a little differently off – almost like a fisheye lens, but not. What are they using to do that and why has that “look” become industry standard, even when we all know the pictures aren’t true to life?
In: Technology
They use a wide angle but not quite fisheye lense, along with good lighting. The purpose is to make the rooms seem larger than they actually are and hide any defects in the paint, floor, cabinets, etc. Even if a lot of people are aware of it, the alternative is to use worse photos, and nobody’s going to do that.
