That's not how it shows itself, 24mm usually is no/less problem.

Explain to me why the center of the far middle tree is sharp and yet the base of it isn't.
Then look at how sharp the corners are of the foreground tree that were just the other side of a fence from me. No other lens I have does this, the old 24-70 actually curved the other way!

Luckily it doesn't affect my intended use, I tested for field curvature at a few meters and its minimal.
