    [Photoshop CC] Apply lens distortion to photo compositing

    Hallo everybody,
    I make a photo with an wide angle lens and now i’d like to add some 2d and 3d graphic and vectors. Of course I’d like to preserve the original lens distortion, therefore I need to APPLY lens distortion to my graphics to match with photo distortion. How can I make It? There is a plugin or inside effect in Photoshop?

    Many thanks!

    P.s. Again, NOT REMOVE but APPLY lens distortion.

    Maybe Topaz Lens Effects plug-in would give the look you are seeking. There also is a Tiffen plug-in, but this is oriented more to emulating various photographic glass filters.

    I think there is a way in Photoshop to map a distortion field to an image, but this is way outside my expertise.
