Am I seeing things?

No video, no proof.

MA2.
HDR video recording.
Shooting a distant shot while waiting for the sunset and I noticed a radio / cellular antenna on the horizon and as I yawed through the the shot the antenna leaned into the center, then appeared straight and then leaned into the center again after I passed to the other side. I thought these caneras minimized the fisheye effect. Reminded me of the GoPro from 6 years ago.

What gives?

Ummm, Show us your video or pics. I never have seen the dreadful fish eye effect on DJI Drones since the P2V+/GoPro 4.

If it is in fact happening, it’s something wrong with your unit alone. I’m in the western Chicago suburbs. I can raise my drone to 400 feet and see the Chicago skyline 30 miles away.. the buildings are not distorted..

There is no fisheye effect.
A fisheye lens would curve any straight lines that didn't pass through the centre of the image.
You probably had the lens looking up or downwards rather than aimed horizontally.
With a wideangle lens it's normal for verticals on the far left and right to be off vertical when the lens is tilted downwards (or up).

Any real estate photographer knows you must keep the lens horizontal to keep verticals vertical.

I will post the video clip tomorrow. Pretty strange... reminded me of the CGO2 cameras with the wide FOV.

Here's a quick and dirty example of what happens to verticals with a wideangle lens when you don't have the camera horizontal.
Wider lens or more tilt = more keystone effect

Any excuse to stop doing the ironing! ?

You aren't talking about the electronic shutter effect are you? When panning (I would guess at a pretty quick horizontal movement) or flying sideways at a good speed, electronic shutters tend to "bend" thin vertical objects (such as antennas and light poles). Mechanical shutters (such as the M2P and P4P) don't have that problem. I am reciting all of this from memory so I could be mistaken on some of the details...
