Here's the usual test shot of the west window of Exeter cathedral to compare detail and sharpness with other cameras. See below for a full-res crop or click to download the full-sized version.

The lens produces relatively little barrel distortion at wide angle.
Centre sharpness could be better, and there is some distortion and chromatic aberration.
There is quite a bit of blurring in the corners of the frame.
