→Frequently asked questions
- How do I add a fisheye effect to a photo?
- Select your image, drag the center handle to where you want the lens centered, then adjust the strength and radius sliders.
- What does the fisheye strength control?
- Strength sets the lens's field of view. Low values give a gentle bulge; values near 1 give an extreme, nearly 180° fisheye look.
- What does the fisheye radius control?
- Radius sets how far the distortion reaches from the center. Pixels beyond it are unchanged, and the effect blends smoothly at the edge.
- How is this different from the Swirl tool?
- Swirl twists pixels around the center. Fisheye pushes them outward, magnifying the center and compressing the edges like a wide-angle lens.
- What file formats can I export?
- You can export as PNG, JPEG, WebP, TIFF, BMP, or HEIC.
- Is this tool free to use?
- Yes — completely free, no account needed. Your images are processed entirely in your browser and never uploaded to a server. Downloads have no watermarks.
