    If I have lens distortion enabled in my camera, would enabling the "lens corrections" setting in Lightroom result in double correction (resulting in warped images)?

    If so, would it be better to have my camera correct for distortion/vignetting, or have Lightroom make those corrections?

    Its probably not a huge deal either way, one could argue that canon has the correction dialed in best for the lens.. But if you want to control the amount of correction applied it would be better to dial it in using LR. SO it depends on if you want control or not in my perspective.
