Curved horizon.

Is it normal that the horizon is so curved in
Typhoon H CGO3 +?

Could this be due to tilting the camera when taking a picture?

No. This is what I get from my CGO3+

Me either. This was shot with my 480:

This picture is with the camera straight ahead, without tilting and the horizon is flat.

Due to the nature of wide lenses, try to place the horizon as close to the center of the lens as possible, then crop in post for artistic composition.

@t_homer There are two cameras out there for the H, a 98° and I Believe 115°, you have the 115°
mine is 98°. Your CGO3+ is way more concave, did you purchased used?
Here I'm tilted about 10° or so.

 

[AH-1G]

About 25° tilt.

If you need to be rid of curved horizons in your still images then run them through GIMP or any other decent image processing application. GIMP is free. To be rid of curved horizons in video then any decent video editor will do it but you may suffer from a bit loss in quality. The down side is that most video editors that can do this aren't usually free.

Is there a way to tell the difference, other than viewing the pictures?

I bought it new in October 2018.
I probably have a camera with a 115 ° lens, I did not know that they can have different lenses.

Yes, I'm not sure, @Ty Pilot did explain it to me once.
