Any lens that goes wide enough will start to show barrel distortion on the edges.

well, the lens does have a good amount of distortion on the wide end (Tamron 28-300 VC) but that is not what you're seeing. What you see is because its a 11-shot panoramic. And, I set the stitching mode to that effect. Could also present it without distortion, if needed. But, I liked the dramatic effect.
Here are the original images used to create that:

well, i said i could do it without distortion, but thats not really accurate. the reason is, its like physically impossible to present that view without some distortion. just because the field of view is so big. it does result in a fish-eye kind of effect. i dont think I explained that too well lol.
