The best one I’m aware of is PTLens. It is free for like 10 images so you can evaluate it. After that you have to pay them a license fee. I’ve long wanted Apple to just buy that company and integrate their technology right into Aperture as an adjustment brick. Oh how that would make such a huge improvement in Aperture.

For now, all plugins require Aperture to generate an RGB TIFF file, send it to the plugin, and the plugin return the edited version that Aperture adds back into the Library as a new version of the original file. If ever you make changes to the original raw adjustments, you will have to do the entire plugin round-trip again to generate a new corrected RGB TIFF.

Very inefficient. Adobe Lightroom has lens correction built right into the adjustments just like any other raw adjustment. So much better that way! Come on Apple!
