With the RIII 1, the distortion is barely noticeable with the 80mm. On the other hand, I wouldn't recommend it with the 75mm.
The Rolleinar is not just a close-up attachment, it's also compositional tool.

Why is this so, Slobodan? Couldn't I use the unadorned lens on the camera, and just crop the photo in an enlarger or in my computer?

But then Dave you wouldn't get all that wonderful perspective distortion from being too close in... ;-)
