Adobe releases Lens Profile Creator

How would you like Photoshop to be able to automatically correct your images for lens correction?The trick is to have a lens profile that is specific to your camera and lenses. While you can wait and eventually your lens/body combination will be available, if you want to do it yourself, and even share your profiles with other people, well now you can.

You can download the tool right now from Adobe Labs and follow the directions to print out the calibration target. Once you have the target, you take a series of images and then you use the tool included in the downloaded package to analyze the images and come up with a new profile file.This is quite unique for Adobe, to allow community generated information into such a core product. What I would like to see is the lens makers like Sigma and Tamron put out as many as possible to ensure that they are done as accurately as possible. Only time will tell if this will prove to be a major pain or something absolutely incredible.
