Hi Philippe. I also recommend that you do upgrade to Lightroom 3. Apart from
other improvements such as better noise reduction and colour rendition for
the M8/9 (oops, sorry) it has the same lens correction options as (does)
Photoshop CS5. The Raw engines are the same.
The available corrections are for transform that you want, lens vignetting
and chromatic aberrations. For popular lenses such as the Nikons or Canons,
you will likely find useful pre-supplied profiles too, but you can make your
own naturally.
You could get the free trial first and try it for a month to confirm that
the upgrade was worthwhile, if desired.




Cheers
Geoff
