[Leica] More 16-35

[Frank Filippone]

The question of lens distortion is no longer a big issue. LR has the ability to correct this. In fact, from my observations, most of the correction done is about barrel or pin cushion correction. Pretty secondary for landscape folk. Pretty important for (serious ) architectural work. 
Sharpness is a totally different issue. But keep in mind that your composition and therefore the important elements in your image will determine corner sharpness importance. Think portraits as a good example.

I believe that the sharpness missing in the corners is due to depth of
field issues.  Almost all ultra wides have significant sharpness falloff as
you move off center.
