That’s basically fine. Sure for a prime lens distortion should be better, but it’s an affordable fast ultra wide angle lens. By f5.6 vignetting is gone. Good show.

Gotta remember it's a Full frame f2.8 ultrawide and it's the size of a nifty fifty and costs $299. We all knew there would be compromises.

exactly. i had the sigma 14 1.8, 20 1.4, canon ef 16-35 2.8ii, tamron 15-30 g2, and i'm more than happy to exchange the weight for more time post processing.

Both the Sigma and the Canon 15mm seem to work well as a donor and then reduce distortion to around 40 to taste.
