I never saw him do anything in LR or PS to compensate for distortion. I was surprised at how normal his images looked shooting the 24-70 at roughly 50mm and fairly close. It changed my opinion of what can be done with shorter focal lengths. I saw him process several images and he never even made a reference in passing to that type of correction.garyrhook wrote: And a lens can be compensated for in LR, which I always do. Yes, geometry is everything, but some tend to overlook that because the short focal lengths "slim" the face. Blech. Mr. Grimes clearly compensates for distortion. He makes nice images.

I'm going to go with "that's impossible." He probably had basic adjustments done on import (if he was using LR). Mine automatically applies lens profile correction and I never even think about it any more.
PS, a different story; I'm not familiar enough with its intricacies. But I think we all agree that lens geometry doesn't magically change just because an accomplished photographer is taking the photograph.
