As a side note, different image sizes in dcraw and DT cause visible
residual lens correction errors in some rare cases.  I use dcraw's
output for measuring distortion.  When correcting in DT, I noticed
that the correction was not perfect.  Using dcraw's TIFF instead of
the RAW in DT made it perfect.

Once Lensfun supports different crop modes (e.g. Nikon DX/FX), the
same technique can be used to solve this issue, too.

Tschö,
Torsten.
