DPReview makes mild complaints about the edge resolution, distortion and
chroma of my m.Zuiko 14-150 at the short and long ends of the range.

Could be those evils are there but I haven't noticed anything that would
cause me to discard it. I haven't actually tested it against anything
else but I really do like that lens and since I don't notice any badness
I'm not very inclined to try hard to find some. :-)
