Guys the one-sided square, perfectly aligned with the camera, very close, with the camera very wide, such as 5 mm, and the refract IOR = 1000000, there is ZERO distortion. You're not doing it right.
At such a high IOR, the square will be a photo in itself. It will show whatever is in front of it at actual size, projected on the square. If you want an entire picture of Andy, then the square must be at least as big as Andy.
Then the real camera is just taking a picture of a picture.
Renderosity forum reply notifications are wonky. If I read a follow-up in a thread, but I don't myself reply, then notifications no longer happen AT ALL on that thread. So if I seem to be ignoring a question, that's why. (Updated September 23, 2019)
