I'm wondering if the built-in distortion correction in Lightroom is top-notch, or if something better is out there? Here are my two questions in specific (both might have the same answer, I don't know):
(To get specific in case if I get a technical answer, I'm shooting with a Nikon D5200 and the AF-S lenses listed in my signature which is below, shooting in RAW, using Adobe Lightroom to process to the RAW files)
1) Basic lens distortion from a normal / portrait prime lens seems simple. In this case, would a quick click on distortion correction in Lightroom be sufficient?
2) Complex lens distortion from my Sigma 10-20 f4-5.6 seems to not work so well in Lightroom. When I click to correct the distortion, I don't always get a sufficiently corrected image. In some cases, distortion is less apparent *before* I click to correct. In the case of my Sigma 10-20 f4-5.6 which has a moustache type of distortion, are there any better distortion correction choices?
