FYI, Aside from it already including profiles for many of the more common lenses, You can create your own lens correction profiles for ACR too; Since ACR 6.1.


On Edit:
IMHO, for most general photography, Lightroom is the best single application you can probably purchase. Probably the only application most people really need. It has all the necessary tools you will need and then some so you won't have to open and close multiple applications or convert to a different file format just to make adjustments. And if you want and have it, it also works seamlessly with Photoshop.
