A way to redistort an image after it's been undistorted via lens correction.

This is very common in VFX workflows.

 

Lens correction only can undistort, but after I’ve done my work and created elements that fit the undistorted plate, I need a  way to redistort said elements to match the original, distorted plate. 

 

The Custom tab in lens correction undistorts, but it’s manual and I need a way to match the perfectly match the original distortion, which is not possible with the manual method.

 

Nuke does this, but it only works on video, plus getting Nuke just for lens distortion is kinda crazy lol
