Yea you should have PT as you will run into shots you want to correct. Even landscape shots. It does distort really ugly but PT does fix the mustache distortion pretty well.

LR doesn't have the Sammy profiled yet but I understand that you can download profiles. These might be a bit 'home brew' but I'll try and report back...I'm pretty sure PT also works as a standalone app, so you can use your current workflow and then run PT on the output of the raw converter, as long as it's jpeg or tiff.
Speaking of raw converters, are you guys saying that neither LightRoom nor C1 can correct this lens properly? Tim seems to say that he prefers PT correction to LightRoom's. Or maybe LR doesn't have the lens profiled yet?
Ashley, I've read elsewhere that there is a Lightroom lens distortion profile for the "Rokinon 14mm f/2.8 IF ED UMC for Nikon" on Adobe Lens Profile Downloader. It's the same lens as the Samyang 14mm with different branding.OK update here: I downloaded Adobe's stuff for finding and creating lens profiles and I find that there are none available for the Samyang so it looks like PT is the only game in town... no biggie: a lot of the files need no correction and PT is quick, cheap and very effective for those that do, though obviously applying the correction in LR would be easier and wouldn't require the creation of additional tiffs...
Why I took a shot of it. LOLGuy, your office will never look this neat and organized again. Ever.
