I'm not sure if anyone is using Lightroom for their IR post-processing, but with the DNG profiles its easy to get the 'right' white balance now. The only thing i've been missing is a way to swap red and blue channels over.
I've just put together a really quick Lightroom export service that exports the current image as a tif, swaps the channels with Gimp, then reimports into the current catalog. So hopefully you shouldnt need to leave lightroom.
Heres the not so simple install instructions, these are for mac, for windows you'll need to edit the path to gimp in RBSwapExportServiceProvider.lua (i'll make this configurable at some point)
* Download the archive code.q3f.org/RBSwap.zip
* Install gimp
* Drop the red_blue_swap.scm into ~/Library/Application Support/Gimp/scripts
* Drop RBSwap.lrdevplugin into ~/Library/Application Support/Adobe/Lightroom/Modules/
* Load the plugin in Lightroom: Plug-in manager -> Add -> browse to the above file
Now you should be able to right click on any IR image and do Export -> RBSwap -> RBSwap. The image should be exported swapped and reimported, touchwood!
