Hello,
I am currently using lightroom 2.0, images processed in Lightroom compared to CaptureOne show a lens cast that is green on the left 10% of the image and magenta on the right 10%, and also slightly more dense on the right. I am using a Mamiya AFD II and 120mm lens and 35mm lens, with PhaseOne P45+. Is there a way to correct for this lens cast in lightroom? It is extremely subtle, as I haven't noticed it for a month, but upon printing 20 16x20's in lightroom, they all have the slight variation.
Thanks,

I know, this isn´t the best possible way, but for my ZD it´s the only (quick) way of dealing with the lens cast, particularly with white interiors. in lightroom i just use the brushes and either desaturate and/or paint tiny doses of green/magenta over the affected area.
I just finished a interior job , shoot similar pics with both the 5d and the zd and - compared with the 5D - the Mamiya records (like I suppose other mf´s too) some fluorescent lightsources very yellowish. using the paintbrush (desat and blue) in lightroom to deal with that yellow cast works very good and makes lightroom a very effective and productive bit of software.

Could you use two graduated filters? I've found these useful for some colour corrections.
There is a video on Adobe's site showing how the grads work, they are on the same LR2 palette as the brushes.

Yes I think this will be the way to do it, once I get it right I can just apply it to all of my images. I started trying to do it, but am clueless with the gradient and I got frustrated and gave up. I need to learn how to use it first.
Thanks.
