The Galaxy S10 devices (S10, S10 Plus, and S10e) all feature an Ultra Wide Camera that allows a user to snap images in great detail, but also in a wide angle. This means that a user no longer needs to move back to capture a wider scene because the 123-degree field of view is often enough in most situations. Most camera field of view is only limited to 77 degrees, just not wide enough for many users. The ultra wide camera feature does come at a cost in the form of fish-eye effect. The edges of photos appear stretched in some scenes, which may not be acceptable for other users. If you don’t want this effect on your photos, you should change a setting under Camera app to fix the distortion.
