The distortion correction of the tested lens is not ideal. Taking into account the focal range and a detector smaller than full frame, we expected, in terms of absolute values, results lower than 1. Unfortunately such a result we got only at 70 mm where we observed slight barrel distortion of −0.72%. With the change of focal length that aberration changes its sign and at 135 mm it amounts already to +1.17%, at 200 mm it increases to +1.31%, and at 300 mm drops again to +1.12%.
