Well, umm... I've used two Nikon 12-24s so far. Neither exhibited really good centering quality.

While searching for the "perfect" walk-around lens three years ago I had to test three exemplars of the 16-85 VR. Each of them had a different weakness. At the end I kept the lens which mostly suited the anticipated usage (more at the wide end than at the tele end).
At the moment I mainly use a Sony A850. Here, my walk-around lens is a Tamron 28-75. My exemplar has clearly a tilted focus plane at the tele end. However, I am tired of the lens selection game and accept it like it is for now.
