Question: Built-in Lens Profile Applied
I have recently started shooting in DNG format using the Lr app camera. When I open these images in Lr CC on my desktop computer, in the optics section it says:
"Built-in Lens Profile Applied. This raw file contains a built-in lens profile for correcting vignetting. The profile has already been applied automatically to this image."
It doesn't say this anywhere in the optics section of the Lr mobile app... and I have my import settings configured to apply lens corrections to all files automatically. Yet, even if I do tick the "Enable Lens Correction" box, it does alter the image.
So, is it unnecessary for me to automatically apply lens correction if the correction has already been made? Should I leave the lens correction box unticked?
I guess I'm just a little confused.

You can then check the checkbox to apply a Lightroom lens profile which will correct distortion, which isn't being corrected by the manufacturer's built in corrections.
