[QUOTE="480sparky, post: 399131, member: 15805"] I didn't pick any arrogance up at all, so it's a moot point now. FWIW, [I]all[/I] lenses have [I]some[/I] distortion. Some have pincushion, some have barreling, some have both, some have compound (mustache) distortion. It may well be the Canon lens you have just has less of it than the Nikon lens and because of that you've noticed it. As for in-camera correction, I have no clue how Canon ships out their cameras in terms of the default setting. I [I]think[/I] Nikon has it turned on, but honestly I don't remember. All I know is I go in and turn all that off when I buy a new camera so I don't have to worry about the camera taking the time required to apply those settings to the data. Doing so slows the camera down, which in turn fills the buffer faster, which in turn lowers the burst rate, which in turn can cause me to miss a shot when I'm shooting fast and furiously. [/QUOTE]
