I can see that I have created friction on this site, the thought that the 32mm can have bad press. However I use this site as a 'real world" test ground as the fact presented tend to be very clear and straight forward. I would hope that before someone made a purchase of this lens, they were aware of just how bad this issue can be on "certain" lenses. I say certain as I realize most people don't complain about it. I can clearly state that I have read out mustache distortion for year, never really understanding the effect until I was able to use the 32mm. It was evident immediately for me. As I stated earlier, I did go back to review many of my shifted series with the 40mm Rodie and now realize the distortion is there also, just not as severe as with what I found with the 32mm.
