Venus Optics LAOWA 9 mm f/5.6 FF RL
6. Distortion
In order not to allow an uncontrolled increase of barrel distortion the producers decided to introduce moustache deformations. As a result across the frame you get an averaged out result of −6.65%. If you limit yourself to an area within 1:1 markings, you will get an even higher value, that of −7.69%.
Of course you can say that the tested lens didn't promise you low distortion as it doesn't feature ZERO-D in its name. Still, in my humble opinion, its producers could have done a better job in this category.
