automatic lens correction

I am shooting a lot of panorama photos, which may consist of up to 50-60 RAW images for each panorama.

Luminar does a nice job of correcting lens distortion, among other things, but I have to manually apply the correction to every image. 

On top of that, each time I select a new image, the default view in the Raw Develop filter is set to "Adjust".

As far as I can tell, I cannot just select all images in a panorama and apply the lens correction, nor can I save a filter that includes lens correction.

This is a real problem for me, as correcting each and every image manually every time I shoot a panorama is a chore I would rather avoid.

Any suggestions or idea as how to solve this issue?

  I also would like an option for this, just a checkbox in the upper menus somewhere to "auto apply lens correction, chromatic aberration, defringe" each separate. perhaps under the "image" menu on the top either add a new menu for lens correction, or add it to adjustments.

   

  or alternatively have them CHECKED by default any make us uncheck them if for some reason we do NOT want them on (I would think this would be a much smaller group)

  Having these options along with an easy way to apply and save as a preset setting the perspective correction would be great.  As it stands now I find editing architectural photography painfully slow in Luminar and thus do not use it for that subject.

  When you right click in the library view (or the image filmstrip on the left), you can copy adjustments, and paste them to one or more images.

  I have noticed that this does apply the lens corrections.

  I agree it would be nice to be able to save the setting in a preset, but this is a workaround.

   

  @Adam : I also agree that perspective correction is a bit basic at the moment, and this is a feature I use a lot in my images, but this topic was about lens correction, not perspective correction. Setting up perspective correction in a preset would be impossible as every image needs different parameters. Still, better perspective controls would be welcome.

  I too would like the ability to make Auto Distortion Corrections default to always on

  How is it possible that this STILL isn't a default preference check? 

   

  Gnkfy, what is your position?

  I'm just some guy whose username is the same as the software. Don't ask me.

  That's unfortunate.  Skylum , what is your take?  Is this ever going to be fixed?
