Lens Correction plugin doesn't have Mavic 2. Anyone know the settings?

Seems really weird that they would have hundreds of lenses in this new plugin, but not offer any for anything from DJI.

Does anyone know the correct distortion settings for the Mavic 2?

Or how to translate from this chart?

In Premiere it's simply entering the number into the curvature field.

I think I read somewhere that the Mavic 2 Pro onboard processor does not have the grunt to do the correction internally for 10bit. Agree, there should be plugin option for Vegas specifically for the Mavic 2 Pro.

I do not know the correct distortion settings for the Mavic 2, but using that chart with settings for Premiere Pro, I believe I have some settings that are equivalent in Vegas Pro.

If I use a lens correction curvature setting of -9 in Premiere Pro, I can do almost equivalent in Vegas Pro by setting lens correction k3 = -0.0463. k1=0.0 and k2=0.0.

For a setting of -4 in Premiere Pro, I can get very close in Vegas Pro with k3 = -0.0313. k1=0.0 and k2=0.0.

I tested with frame sizes of 1920x1080 and 2000x2000 where I distorted grids in Premiere Pro by an amount so that a curvature of -4 or -9 would correct the distortions. I then put the distorted images on the Vegas timeline and found the lens correction settings that would correct the distortions.

Well, anyway, you can try it with real Mavic 2 Pro video, which I don't have.
