I thought there would be much more of a fisheye distortion at 8mm but DXO and LR remove any of this. I don’t really see any before I edit but I see none after.

I use this lens a lot more than I thought I would. It is big heavy and does not have a filter thread. The pictures it generates for me are stunning and can include so much perspective. It is weather resistant although I have not tested that yet.
