 What kind of light and film are you shooting with?
 
Generally, I'd say "Correct in Photoshop"

I have a question...

If I'm in a situation where I might need color-correction filters, such
as where I'm shooting long exposures and subject to reciprocity failure
in my color film, what are everyone's thoughts/preferences regarding
the use of color-correction filters, as contrasted with forgoing the CC
filters and making the color corrections in Photoshop, for example,
with the color correction filters and other tools there?

>Pros? shorter exposure times w/o CC filters; no need to buy add'l
filters or carry them or worry about scratching them...

>Cons? potentially l ots of work in PS, and maybe too difficult to
obtain a decent image...
(but, if I can't obtain a decent image through manipulating w/
PS, would I have obtained a decent image w/ the CC filters?)

Or, don't try this at home??? ;)

I've only rarely been in a situation where reciprocity failure is an
issue, and so am trying to determine the cost-benefit issues,
particularly since I already have PS.

Thanks,

Tim!
