Pinchusion Distortion (long End) on Full Frame Body

I have used this lens both on my N80 (full Frame) and on my D50. I highly recommend it for DX format cameras. However on full frame, the pincushion distortion at 200MM is circus like.

I bought this lens to replace the kit lens on my N80. I was very impressed with how fast this lens focuses. The 24mm wide (true wide on a film slr) is great to have and really helped with a recent 30 person group shot inside a cramped corner of a church.
Sharp at all focal lenghts. I was pleasently surprised after getting back my prints using Kodak 400UC. Excellent contrast and color. No flare problems so far. The included flower shaped lens hood is great and gives a "pro" look.
