Your samples somehow remind me on the images one could see 10 to 15 years ago from many premium compacts. Top performance in centre and some mild corner problems, in particular in the vignetting department. With part of the corner problem being that the lens was typically to wide <img src='http://forum.photozone.de/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/wink.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':o' />
It gives the images a certain character. I am often wondering, whether modern lenses lack are to perfect and just lack character in return.

I don't. I don't expect painters to ponder whether their brushes are too good, singers to demand noisier microphones, or musicians to worry whether their instruments make too beautiful a tone, either.
