When will we have Lens Cast Calibration in Lightroom

hi,

i postproduction time couple of other photographers. send me raws , develop them. favourite tool lightroom, since quality improvement in version 3.

however, work on architecture shots done digital on technical camera (tc), phaseone , hasselblad backs. these backs suffer heavily colour casts when used wide-angle lenses on tc's, due strong inclination of lightrays on sensor.

these images have developed in raw software of respective brand, captureone phase backs, , phocus hasselblads.

both have special function analyse cast of separate image has shot each time translucent white cap on lens.

these casts filtered out, , 1 can carry on rest of development of raw file. has done within capture1 or phocus, 'cause can't export dng lens cast corrected. can of course export tiff lightroom, loose whole dynamic range of raw.

 

it's feature i'm missing in lightroom. prefer using lightroom, because use  local adjustment (gradients , brushes) time.

none of possible in captureone or phocus, shame really. wrote developers of captureone ask local adjustments , took me 6 mails before man understood talking about. don't @ lightroom?

 

so adobe developers, if add lens cast correction (or scene calibration called in hasselblad's phocus), have best raw program in world, , can dish these other brand-infected stuff hard disk.

hi steven,

 

so, fix be?

 

i mean image can thought of distribution of red, mixed distribution of green, mixed distribution of blue.

 

so if color off same amount across histogram, fix white balance (or camera calibration).

 

if color off different amounts in different tonal ranges there needs redistribution - manually (e.g. in photoshop) done using separate rgb channel curves.

 

not sure how fixed automatically...

 

so, can fix adjusting rgb percentages (either whitebalance or cameracalibration), or require larger hammer?
