Yep, they're pretty much identical. It's a great tool to have in ACR when using Photoshop for any quick corrections if outside of Lightroom (or finished with the raw edit in ACR).
Thanks Nicole. I use it for framed art all the time as you can rarely get it perfect. I had a commercial shoot where I had to shoot probably 50 gold/platinum record displays all on a wall and all highly reflective. I had to shoot off center so I didn't show up in the reflection as well as drape a black cloth in front of them. I had to use the guided tool to fix each one of them, which was way easier and faster than trying to do something with the warp tool in Photoshop.
Hi Nicole, after being away from LR for some years (- due to Adobe's subscription price policy change), I am back to do do a number of Blurb books. In need of a refresher, I fell into your tutorials, and they are really excellent! - Your teaching style, your no-nonsense content, your recording technique (and pleasant voice too), - Really a pleasure to watch. Meaning this as a compliment, you are the new Julianne Koster ( - or she is Nicole Old, maybe ;-). thanks, and you just got a new subscriber.
Great tip, Nicole. I do the same thing in Camera Raw, but, there, they call it "Geometry"". Happy Holidays!

DXO Viewpoint 4 does the same more automatically with less messing around. Anthony Morganti has a video on that.
Great tutorial for a Lightroom tool that I've never fully mastered.
Great demo … back to check some of my photos that would need the same type of corrections.

It's probably a lot easier to correct for the distortion than to fix a reflection spot on the images!

Thanks so much! I really appreciate the compliment and thanks for the subscribe! 😊
