If, as you suggest, it's anything implemented in software, then I'm not going to worry about it one whit - that's what Photoshop is for. The only in-camera processing I use (apart from ISO variations) is JPEG conversion (RAW+JPEG or just plain JPEG output for happy-snaps).
While I did notice, just the other day, that my every day kit is all stuff that's at most 2 1/2 years old, and that my most-used lenses are DAs (mostly 16-50 and 50-135), I've got a good number of older lenses that come out occasionally. There's no way I'm going to replace all of those, no matter how useful the feature may be. On Sun, May 17, 2009 at 03:14:13PM -0400, Adam Maas wrote: > In-camera lens correction is a safe bet.
