Professional lenses by Nikon and Canon have minimal distortion throughout their zoom range. By professional I mean L-lens and L-lens equivalents for Nikon. If you're using a prime lens by either manufacturer then even the nifty-fifties have little to no distortion. Ofcourse there aren't any lenses with ZERO distortion, however, unless you have a habit of taking pictures of grid boards I wouldn't worry about it.
