Yes, that's correct. However, the lens is that wide at its closest focus setting only. If you really shoot that close with such a lens, it might be a real issue. For me, it hasn't been, though.

Also as a user, no issue. Had I not read about the 'breathing' I would have been in blissful ignorance of it.
What is an issue is the forward centre of gravity from those 4 big front elements which gives me instant backache.
