It is almost never the lens at fault

When you have a blurry or fuzzy picture, it is so easy to blame the lens. After all many reviews compare the sharpness of lenses all the time. Speaking from experience, it is very rarely the lens at fault.

Blurred
Two main distortion types

If you know what the problem is, it is easy to correct

More modern cameras can automatically correct the known distortions for lenses at different focal lengths. Here I use the Nikon 28-200 which at 28mm has very visible distortion. I take two separate pictures, one without any correction the other with Auto distortion control set to on on a Nikon D610.

No correction
