Hmm.. yes, as I think about it, it makes sense. OK, so instead of a
$1500 lens, I really need a $3000 full-frame camera. I'll tell my wife
it's all your fault.

I thought that this might be a wide-angle effect too, but my Canon 10D

event ... or would I?

Yes, you would, as the crop is digital, not optical. The crop would
minimise the apparent distortion by removing the areas (near the edges)
where the distortion is most severe.
