Lightroom Classic Lens Correction

How many of you in Lightroom Classic under Lens Correction apply Lens Profile to every image all the time, sometimes or never in Lightroom Classic? Love to hear others.

I use it all the time, but, as with everything else in photography, there is no right or wrong, it is personal preference.

Most of the time. I usually crop most images at least a little bit, and that will leave uneven distortion and vignette (uncentered, rotated, darker sections, etc) if you don't remove it prior to cropping.

Remove it, crop, add vignette back in. (I like to add vignette back to most images except a few stylized choices). You can match the vignette to the original lens if you liked how it looked.

Every now and then there will be an image that doesn't need any cropping and I like the distortion/vignetting and just leave it. It's fairly rare though.

I will apply LrCC lens profile correction, at least for all of my lenses that have profiles. I'm still using a Sigma 20-40mm ƒ/2.8 EX DG as my standard zoom lens on APS-C. This lens has never had an Adobe lens profile. I tend to avoid using the profile at all, but if I use a preset with lens profiles applied to it, it doesn't set any profile at all so that is good now.

I apply lens profile correction during import.
