I purchased a Nikkor 28-200 lens because it has very good ratings. It is obsolete but still a great lens. In the Develop module under lens corrections the list of Nikon lenses doesn't have a listing for my lens. What lens from the list most closely matches matches my 28-200 g lens? TIA

I had the same problem with a Nikkor 28~85. Why not make your own? It's easy.

When you apply lens correction and select Nikon, what does lightroom fill in the blanks with?

DaveD10913

You choose the brand name and then you get list of all of the supported lenses. Choose the one that matches your lens and you are good to go.

Unfortunately, LR and PS lens correction library doesn't have all lenses listed. I made my own profile with Adobe tools and software. This is handy as I often use my Zeiss lenses from my Hasselblad on my D700 and D800e

Ken Rockwell publishes lens corrections you can use in Photoshop. I think this is the link to your lens.
