I did get some improvement by using a 1mm shim to adjust the flange to sensor distance with my 14-24, but there was still a lot of distortion in the corners.

Yes you are abosolutely right. I just went and checked. I did not know that.

Perhaps exposure lock then release the lens may leave it at the last selected aperture?
