I’m using a Nikon D80 with the AF-S DX NIKKOR 18-135mm f/3.5-5.6G ED. I checked Adobe’s supported lens list and couldn’t find a profile for this lens. Does an Adobe/Photoshop lens correction profile exist for it? If not, are there workable alternatives such as manual correction values or third-party databases that can help fix distortion and other aberrations?

Since your lens is not on Adobe's list of supported lenses, official Adobe lens correction data for your lens either does not exist or is not provided to the public. Other options include:
Your lens may be included in the Lensfun database, which is used by some non-Adobe software to apply lens corrections.
You can use Hugin to correct an image taken with your lens. The same
ptofile can be used to correct other images taken with the same lens at the same focal length.Ken Rockwell provides values you can type into Photoshop's lens distortion filter.

Generated from our catalog & community — verify before relying on it.
If your lens is not listed by Adobe, then an official Adobe/Photoshop lens correction profile for it likely does not exist, or Adobe does not make one available publicly.
You still have a few options:
- Use manual corrections in Photoshop’s Lens Correction filter.
- Check the Lensfun database, which is supported by some non-Adobe photo apps.
- Use Hugin; it can correct images from this lens, and a generated .pto setup can be reused for shots made at the same focal length.
- Some photographers have published manual distortion values you can enter yourself.
So the short answer is: probably no official Adobe profile, but yes, you can still correct the lens using manual settings or other software databases/tools.
