It seems we are all being driven across the line, from photographer to digital scientist. It appears to me that Fuji
is simplifying its lens optical designs, and turning to firmware to finish the job. After buying and using the

I assume you realize that you only see the distortion because you are using a RAW converter that does not use the lens
provided data to correct distortion as part of the conversion.
The makers' intents are to make it all transparent to the user. If you use the camera provided converter or the various
versions of Adobe,the correction is automatically applied, and you never see the distortion. So no, they aren't trying
to make you go "from photographer to digital scientist" You've made that choice by the RAW converter you use. You can
also un-make it by using PTLens, but that requires either a converter-editor than uses PS plug-ins or an extra software
step.
, I opted for a proven Leica-R design when buying a 90. So far, it appears to
be a great acquisition.
I'm glad you are enjoying it.
