...Only three more days. I told Santa, as I perched precariously on his good knee; "My color is RED and my size is Ferrari."  Laughing Out Loud

ok........................I tried NOT to ask about this......did you maybe have a Ferrari or some other really heavy object on your mantel at some time in the past?.......orrrrrrrrrrrrr.......are we looking at real Ferrari`s shot at such a distance that the curvature of the earth is prominent?.....rounded mantel perhaps??

HA! Nah, older photo taken with a wide angle lens that rendered less-than-perfect & unwanted fisheye results.

GOOD call John! I, indeed, used a Nikkor AF 24-120mm f/3.5-5.6 D lens on that shot with the D300. The primary lens I now use on the D610 is the Nikon AF-S VR Zoom-Nikkor 24-120mm f/4G ED lens. And @ 24mm, there's no fisheye or off-kilter aspect ratio 'look'. By the way, after I get that ferrari, I got my eye on the new mirrorless Z9 !!!  Shut Mouth

"The primary lens I now use on the D610 is the Nikon AF-S VR Zoom-Nikkor 24-120mm".......me too except 24-80 (no issues)

The one I experience abnormalities with is a prime lens...Nikon AF-S NIKKOR 24mm f/1.8G ED.....as stupidly expensive as this lens is,I`m fairly certain the problem is not the hardware

Mirrorless Z9.......If I could just get that guy to up his offer for my kidney Shut Mouth
