Distance perspective not related to lens distortions

All parallel lines appear to converge at a distance no matter whether they go up, down, left or right - it is not really distortion in any way, but a consequence of the fact that things look smaller at a distance or distance perspective.

As was probably mentioned, the convergence is easily corrected in in software, obviously at the cost of cropping out some of the image
