What does the Lensball effect change?

Lensball simulates the named optical behavior through geometry, blur, dispersion, and edge falloff, while keeping the effect adjustable over the original frame. The strength control determines how much of that treatment replaces the unedited appearance.

Which photos work best with Lensball?

Choose Lensball for street and travel photography, nightlife and direct-flash images, or family photographs styled as physical prints when the source has clear detail and balanced exposure. Start with a lighter setting if it contains technical records, already damaged scans, or tiny compressed files where added grain and optical texture can hide essential detail.
