The EVF pincushion is quite severe, also the smear of the display towards the corners looks terrible, I wonder if that is common as I read some other poster report the same on this forum.

I just now took a look at the review and saw his photo depicting severe EVF pincushion. Mine is NOTHING like that! At least, not with my eye up to the eyecup. I don't know if his photo is distorted from photographing the EVF, or what, but that does not come anywhere close to depicting how I see the image in the EVF. Wow.

I remember Gordon Laing mentioning that most of the EVF pincushion effect shown in his video (@12:48) was due to the phone he used to take the video. I wonder if the same is true with Robin's photo of the EVF.
