Hi everyone. I’m trying to find a new app to edit photos with, I’m getting tired of paying Adobe. I’m currently trying out Photomator and Darkroom, but I don’t see an option to enable lens corrections on either of these apps. Since I’m in my testing period, are there any another apps that have the lens correction tool?

    I’d say DXO is better than Lightroom at lens corrections. They do a lot of testing and can correct compound distortions or a fisheye lens. I find a lot of the other functions to be annoying or a bit opaque. But lens corrections is automatic and perfect

    I use Capture One, but I got in before the subscription licensing, which is so not worth it with C1. But editing and raw processing and skin tones are annoyingly second to none.

    Darktable is on par with Lightroom maybe slightly better as it can correct perspective distortion and tough CA with less side effects. The UI is a little messy but i’ve been testing it for a month , trying to get away from Adobe as well and i’ve been pretty happy with the results. It also has better masking then Lightroom and some photoshop like features.

    In the modern mirrorless systems, a lens correction profile should be embedded in the raw file, so that any raw converter can apply it by default. Do you actually notice severe distortion or vignetting when using Photomator or Darkroom, that you didn’t see in Lightroom? It might already apply lens corrections, without giving you an option to disable.
