6. Distortion
When you progress to full frame, deformations are noticeable only at the longest focal lengths. The biggest of them can be seen at 550 mm where we got pincushion distortion of +1.77%. At 400 mm you still deal with a level over 1%, and our official result was +1.13%. At 180 and 300 mm focal lengths it is much more difficult to see any distortion and our measurements amounted to just −0.22% and +0.81% respectively.
