Interestingly both the 9-18mm as well as the Pana 7-14mm are not distortion-corrected. The charts look pretty much the same in LightZone (which does not apply auto-correction). Possibly the higher price tags help to do the real thing.

Klaus, dpreview indicated in both 7-14 & 9-18 reviews that distortion were corrected and their supplied distortion grids seem to prove it.
Olympus at 9mm we go from +4.7 to +1.41% ; Panasonic at 7mm we go from +3.4% to -0.14%.
Or am I reading something wrong?
