Lightroom 3 to Add Lens Correction
Tom Hogarty, product manager for Adobe’s Lightroom product, has posted some information and a video showing that Lightroom 3 will indeed have the same lens correction technology that was previewed in Adobe’s upcoming Photoshop CS5.
“The technology is designed to address lens correction via two methods: Lens Profiles and Manual Correction. The easiest application of lens correction is to apply the lens profile technology that encompasses geometric distortion(barrel and pincushion distortion), chromatic aberration and lens vignetting characteristics. A handful of lens profiles will be provided by default and a Lens Profile Creator Utility will be posted on Adobe Labs allowing photographers to create their own lens profiles using a simple procedure discussed in the video below. There are also manual distortion corrections that extend beyond traditional geometric distortion and provide horizontal and vertical transform adjustments.(As well as rotation, scale and crop to visible image data tools.) ”

Awesome! I hope this feature works as well as the other new features in LR3. Now I'm going to consider buying the Nikon 70-200 I instead of the newest version and will be able to save some cash!
