Is there any 24-240mm zoom lens that doesn't suffer from requiring strong distortion corrections especially at the wide end ??

I don't know of one.

Nope. And for that matter most zooms in the $2000 range are NOT free of distortion either. Some pretty intense at 24mm to begin with. I'm dang sick and tired of these wanna be engineers that want to slam lenses by the dozen out there, many of which are perfectly competent for their use. I guess I might be a bit of a renegade by saying I tend to agree with a certain Ken Rockwell who is often maligned here. His statement "most lenses are sharp and if they are not it's the user not the lens". LOL It's truer then you know.

Name the gear and I've probably owned it and used it.
