The editors didn't like
The barrel distortion at wideangle and pincushion distortion at 70mm is obvious. However this is characteristic of this category of lens. You wouldn't use it for architecture

Solid but lightweight professionalgrade build, Vibration Compensation helps for shooting at slower shutter speeds in low light, fast, virtually silent focusing, great resolving power and excellent image quality results
