Lens distortion

Going by both my anecdotal test shots and our lab tests, it looks like Nikon is slightly over-correcting barrel distortion on the S6200's ultrawide-angle lens causing a bit of pincushioning (top). The lens itself has OK center sharpness, but gets noticeably softer off to the sides and corners. It was particularly bad in the upper-left corner of my test camera.
