I float between correcting verticals and leaving them converging with my Sigma 10-20. I think that CV's add drama to a shot, and give a kind of surreal quality.

When the CV's are corrected to be straight I often think it makes the image look (depending on the subject) artificial, so I guess I'm in the camp of leaving some CV in to retain some perspective.

Charlotte also thinks that in the shots where I have corrected CV's, the image looks flat -that is no depth - not poor contrast.
