Sorry, I thought that it was obvious from the title of my post and the images posted. The smoke stack that I circled in red is straight when in the center of the frame, even on the edges, but warped when in the corners. Is that clear enough? the smoke stack should be perpendicular to the ground, not warped/leaning. I have two OSMO Actions, which have a DEWARP setting. The Mini 3 is warping the image, but I see no setting to correct this in camera.

ANY wide angle lens does that.

The original Osmo Action has a 145 degree FOV; no warping with Dewarp turned on.

Any wideangle lens will do that .. it's called the Keystone Effect.
If you tilt the camera downwards, the verticals will lean inwards.
Tilt upwards past horizontal and the verticals will fall outwards.
If you want verticals to be vertical, you need to have the camera horizontal.

Thank you for your response. This is a normal distortion phenomenon. The closer to the edge, the more obvious the distortion will be. We appreciate your understanding and support.

That is why I would have preferred a smaller FOV on my drone.
I can always fly back (most of the time at least) to get more in the frame.
Having said that, with some post processing, they could have fixed it, but usually that does not benefit the image quality as they essentially move pixels around.
