Guys

Just noticed something, no idea why this is,

I have a RX 100 MK 1
when i take a photo, it takes a copy in the original format, and a copy in .jpg

just looked at my photos and when i view the .ARW and then the .JPG the picture changes, its like the .ARW is slightly distorted in like a fish eye, and the .JPG is straight

what am i doing wrong?

That's normal - RAW photos are completely unedited, and so don't have any lens correction applied either.

never noticed it before, even with my DSLR !

Not all cameras exhibit lens distortion - it's generally more common with smaller devices and hence smaller lenses

Similar to the fish eye effect for wide angle. The newer LG G7 applies heavy lens correction algorithms to combat the effect
