The Lens Correction Tool
Lightroom Tutorial with Mike Le Gray
(2 votes)
Summary
Once again in what is most probably the most popular RAW workflow program, we are taken through Camera Profiles by photographer and Lightroom aficionado, Mike Le Gray. He leads us through both automatic and manual lens corrections, as well as adding/removing vignetting, Chromatic Aberration and Camera Calibration.
Have you ever looked at your shot on the camera LCD and then wondered what happened to it after you uploaded it to Lightroom? Mike talks us through the reason for this and just how to get the photo back to at least a very close approximation of what you saw in-camera. Whilst being a dedicated Nikon shooter, Mike assures us that although named differently, Canon profiles are available in Lightroom and work in exactly the same way, as do those of all the major camera/lens manufacturers.
He also gives us an insight as to how we can correct the perspective distortion we get when shooting up at a building. Whilst it can't always be corrected 100%, we can, in just a few simple steps, hugely improve the final image.
