Hello, as you can see below (look at the top line of the building on the right) I’m getting some lens distortion from jpegs on my x100v. All material points to the in camera software correcting this, so I’m wondering why I’m ending up with distortion when shooting jpegs. Is it a software issue failing to properly correct distortion? A bad copy of the lens? Thanks for your advice!

I see a little pin cushion distortion here, but it really looks pretty minor to me. Do you see it at different focus distances too? Are your RAWs OK? I'm not really noticing any significant distortion with my X100V either in the jpegs or RAW conversions with LR or Iridient X-Transformer. Are you sure the building isn't a little wonky?

Not hard to straighten it after the fact.
