The few, the ignorant and the learning..
I thought it just fixed a portion of the CA and not the barrel/pincushion.

DxO corrects for it all, particularly barrel and pincushion. I'm not sure how far LR and ACR go.

Good question. I haven't played around with lens correction in LR3, but here's some documentation on it (for those of us who are interested):

Hmm... I just realized that my 7 year old 20D has a higher fps than the much newer 5DMK2 (hopefully it'll be here by the weekend). I wonder if that's something I'm gonna miss having.

i didn't say that was edgy, i said i was a fan of edgy.

what makes me happy with it? it's the light that i wanted for that particular shot on the background itself.

It's the 100 2.8 V1 and it is a top performer. This was close to being a 1:1 photo.
