Thanks, I have been using Distorts>Lens Distortion but thought it would be nice
to pull the lens settings from a database rather than enter each time (or have
the filter use the EXIF data to find the lens and relevant data in the
database).
I am also straightening JPEGs and not importing RAW.
May be I should just batch process all the JPEGs taken with the same lens before
importing into Gimp.
