A method for correcting a distorted input image comprises determining a local region of an image to be displayed and dividing said region into an array of rectangular tiles, each tile corresponding to a distorted tile with a non-rectangular boundary within said input image. For each tile of the local region, maximum and minimum memory address locations of successive rows of said input image sufficient to span said boundary of said distorted tile are determined. Successive rows of the distorted input from between said maximum and minimum addresses are read. Distortion of the non-rectangular portion of said distorted input image is corrected to provide a tile of a corrected output image which is stored.
