Nikon has released updated lens Distortion Control Data version 2.016 L firmware update for a number of DSLR cameras.

Nikon also fixed the issue that sometimes rendered the Auto distortion control option in the camera menus unavailable when distortion control data version L 2.013 was used with the D7200.

Distortion control data are used to correct barrel and pincushion distortion during shooting and editing. They can be loaded into cameras that support distortion control.

I installed it in my D750 as soon as I knew about it.  I haven't yet tried any new lenses, though...    :o

Distortion correction only affects JPEGs and TIFFs that are shot in camera or  raws that are processed using Nikon software, right?

That's what I thought as well. Not with NEF's.
