Yup!
I agree, nearly to the full.
And I had tried to address the issue(s) in my quick and dirty edit -
first converging pseudo parallels, then distortion (as I maintain
there was some - that where Moose and I diverge).
I also had rotated the shot anticlockwise by a weeny bit as I feel the
terrasse in front of the café is not level (for such a rainy area
Britanny is ;-)

I believe nothing is level in that place, except the beer in the
glasses if any left ;-)
Some windows might be vertical though, yet hard to tell which ...
My original question remains about the lens and FL. Just because I may
also have them in my bag :-)
Anyway, I must get there some day too, for Chris's photos are a treat
and an invitation.

Thanks, but I’ll have to bow to your superior discernment
(champagne or no ;-)). The old buildings of Lannion might be a
little on the lean, or I might not quite be level, it’s difficult
to say. I can see from your little edit that there is something
different, but I’m not sure that I would have noticed otherwise.
I’ve slightly rotated the Lannion shot and cropped out the cars
(which I had not noticed before):
Is it possible that you and Philippe are talking at cross purposes?
You are thinking of lens distortion, "trusting to Mr Fuji’s magic",
while I believe Philippe is talking about perspective distortion
from shooting up at tall things. This has nothing to do with the
lens and can't be corrected by soft/firmware.
The effect is of things getting narrower as they go up, and
buildings tend to look like they are leaning backward. You can see
the effect here even in the recently constructed shop fronts. Notice
how the windows of the one on the left are a parallelogram, not a
rectangle.
With a shot like this one, it's hard for someone who wasn't there to
know how much to correct, vs. over correction. Here are a couple of
quick and dirty possibilities, if only to make my point clear. <http://www.moosemystic.net/Gallery/Others/Barker/Lannion.htm
