There's a bit of lens distortion, but it isn't unworkable. It just simulates standing a little closer to the model than you might in a life drawing class. Sites like character designs tend to have more lens distortion to the point where it can be a problem. Pic related.

If you feel like you don't have a solid understanding of perspective, and that the proko photos won't help you, then don't study from them. As long as you can find the horizon and figure out the ground plane then you're probably fine. A good free alternative is mj_ranum's stock gallery on deviantart. Practically no distortion compared to the human eye, and generally good, simple lighting in most. Some of his older shots do have too deep darks so watch out for that.
