Are you sure about that ?
If I were a pro with a very expensive Canon kit, for instance, I'd
really get upset with Canon if I found distortion at one end or the
other. That's presumably why you pay the high price for those outrageous
lenses!
Both the EF 28-70 f/2.8 and 70 (80) - 200 f/2.8 suffer from barrel distortion. In addition, the 28-70 has bad veiling flare and poor contrast.
This is just judging the lens from printing negatives that came our from behind those lenses.
