Lightroom :: Fuji RAW Files Don't Show Correct Lens Profile In Develop Module
Apr 7, 2013
I have a Fuji X-e1 and the latest update of LR 4.4 running on 10.6.8, 16GB RAM, all OS software up to date.
The problem is my Fuji RAW files don't show the correct lens profile in the Develop module. The only choice available to choose is for Fuji X100 (which I've never owned or shot). The metadata in the Library module is correct for both the lens and camera, and also shows correctly in Bridge.
However, with the same software on a friend's Macbook Pro -- also 10.6.8, LR 4.4, etc. -- the lens profile correctly allows for the X-e1 and 18mm lens auto-correction.
I uninstalled LR on the desktop using an uninstaller called Zap It, downloaded 4.4, reinstalled and still the same 'error'.
I just noticed yesterday that when I have RAW (DNG) files in my LR5.2 library, I can select the correct lens profile to apply. When I take three of those files and merge them together in Photomatix Pro they come back as a single TIFF file. Now LR only has one lens profile available, and it is the wrong one.
This is happening with my Sony NEX-7 and Tamron 18-200mm f/3.5-6.3 XR DI-III VC. With the RAW files, I have a list of Tamron lenses from which to choose, and the correct one is available. For the merged TIFF file, however, only a single Tamron lens is available for selection, and it is not the lens I used.
Using LR 3.5.1. When applying Lens Corrections/Profile/Enable in Default, my Sigma 10-20mm f/4-5.6 actual lens is being corrected by the profile for a Sigma 10-20mm f/3.5 lens. I can tell it's the wrong correction because the barrel distortion after using the default profile is not corrected, and when I manually select the 4-5.6 lens the correction is perfect. So I know the right data is embedded in the LR correction data bank but is not being used.
I found that when I set the profile Setup selector to "Auto" the correct lens is selected and the correction it makes is "correct." But then moving to the next photo it switches to Default again, selecting the wrong lens, and so has to be set to Auto for each photo. This action doesn't seem to me to me an expected result called "Setup." I need this for my home interior photography, and with hundreds of photos a week I don't want to manually operate this. This didn't happen until v.3.4 or 3.5, I think.
So, how do I get it to select the right lens as the Default, or get the Auto setting to stick? Either would do. (Seems to me they logically are the same thing).
In addition, why isn't it possible to have the profile itself enabled as a default perhaps in a preset - or is that possible and I don't know how to do it? In other words, once it's working right, why not make it an import preset for that lens?
Looking forward to this update because i use a Fuji X pro 1 and I had read that lightroom 4.4 now supports this camera and sensor.
However after updating all I get in the Lens adjustment under Fuji is the Fuji x100 which has been their for some time.The exif info is showing the correct camera and lens used etc.
I have tried uninstalling and then manually removing any left over files and folders with no luck.
Do i have to install support for this camera as an addon?
Also if i look in the lightroom folder Camera profiles/camera it only lists Canon, Nikon and Sony
When I open a photo and try use the lens profile option. It only find my one wrong lens profile.
My lens is TAMRON 18-270mm F3.5-6.3 and in "progmdata -> adobe ->CamereRaw ->lensprofile" directory the lens profile is there Together with another 19 items.
But in LR when I open the lens profile and choose tamron, It automatically selects a wrong lens, when I try to choose a different lens It shows only the wrong lens (where is all the 19 lenses??), How can I fixed it that I could choose my lens?
I have Lightroom 3.5 - Photoshop CS5 Extended and both are up to date but I'm trying to get my ALR to use the latest Camera Raw 6.5 but it's not a selection on the drop down menu.
My camera profiles are there for Nikon D700 but i'm using presets that use ACR and it's old. -- i've removed Lightroom (an unistaller would be super useful adobe!!!) but it still remembers my old catalogs etc...
Unless it is hidden away in an area i've yet to discover, where the lens profile/correction module is hiding? Simple enough to enable in 3.5...alas, can't find it in 3.6.
I refer to Lightroom version 3.6. I have purchased a panasonic-gx1 plus 14-42mm & 45-175mm lenses and would like to add the lens profiles to the lens correction module.
I'm trying to use the develop module in lr for the first time, I normally use Breezebrowser. in Library mode.I have quick develop options, but in the develop module nothing shows on the right hand side of the screen at all.I have went into presents and ticked all the boxes but the only way I have options to develop are from the library module and that does not show the straigten option which i want. I have hit the D button until its worn out. This has been like this since I installed lr5, I used lr3 previously but only as a method to export images to zenfolio did not use anything apart from import and export. What do I need to do to get the options for the Develop module to show on screen? I have also hit the T for Toolbar several hundred times with no difference.
I have recently installed Lightroom 4. In the develop module, any adjustments will not show in the photo on the screen. The photo frequently will not load onto the screen. If I select crop mode, the photo disappears and the screen turns to gray. If I select before/after, the screen turns to gray. I have read the manual multiple times and have watched the video. I do not see any step that I am omitting or doing incorrectly. Should I uninstall & reinstall the program, or what?
I am shooting a series of studio shots into Lightroom 4.1 using EOS Utility. I would like each shot to show up in the Develop module with the same cropping for each. When I set the crop and lock it, the next shot defaults back to the default or entire image area. Is there a way to create a Custom crop and have LR crop each image as it is imported from EOS Utility?
i used Adobe Lens Profile Downloader 1.0 (Vista) to install a Profile for my Sony DSC-R1. I can see it in ...Adobe/CameraRaw/LensProfiles/1.0/Downloaded/ as 9480906a6e914dc7a47b3d5cf491d624.lcp. But it doesn't show in Lightroom 4.1 as a profile under Camera Calibration.
Somehow, the little triangle that opens and closes the Quick Develop Module in my Library has become solid, so it no longer pops the menu open when I glide my cursor over to the right side of a full screen image. How do I get the Quick develop module triangle to have that shadow look again so that when I glide the cursor to it the module opens.
I must have changed this with a keystroke or something but for the life of me I cannot get it back and it's driving me crazy. I do not like the module open all the time and it's a pain to use the keystroke or click the triangle each time I need to make a quick adjustment. I hope this is not an upgrade change. I notice it is the same in my develop module.
My Lens(es) are supported according to the official list. But current version of LR (5.3) is not showing my lens for selection. Also for some of my other lenses, where I think I could slelct the right profile in the past, I cannot select it currently.
My (new) lens I want to use is Tamrom 70-200 f/2.8 VC (A009E). The only Tamron lens I can choose is Di 28-75. Also my selections for Canon lenses are fewer than in the past, my 15-85 EF-S is missing now also.
An 32-bit HDR image as a smart object and applied HDR Efex Pro as a filter ... I have different previews in PS and LR. The correct image is in the PS. I've closed and open LR and create 1:1 preview, but I could not get the correct preview in LR in the develop module
The issue probably has to do with the differences in settings. I am using the 64 bit version of Windows 7.I imported a group of pictures with the XMP sidecar files generated with Lightroom v3. All the image files, a mixture of Canon Mark 5D II RAW and jpg files from my point & shoot UFO camera, imported without issue picking up all my tagging and GPS settings. When importing you are put into the Library module and from the Library module I could click on any RAW or jpg file, look at the meta data and view full screen.
I then entered the Develop module with a jpg picture selected and none of my settings made it across. The process was set to 2012. I was able to try out the new adjustments and all worked very well.I then selected a RAW file while still in the Develop module and all hell broke loose.
I got a tip window pop up, the film strip went orange, the rest of the app screen then became greyed out and then behind tip pop up a crash window containing this information appeared:
There was no other path but to have the app close after that. Now since Lightroom has left off with the RAW file in the develop module when I restart the app it starts in the develop module with that same RAW image selected and I crash before I can change to a jpg. I am probably going to have to delete and recreated the data file to use the app again
After the all this I went back and checked to see how I had the catalog settings in LR 3 set because there were no sidecar files for the jpg images. I did not have the option to write settings to jpg and tif files but did have write settings to sidecar set. So I have a bit of a mystery why I have no sidecar files for jpg files when I should have based on the way the settings were. This probably explains why I had no issues at all with them in LR 4.
I am going to get LR 4 working again and then import the same batch of pictures without any sidecar files and see if I have any issues. I will report back soon.
I keep hearing conflicting reports about how Lightroom handles lens corrections for the Fuji X100s. Some say you need to use the X100 profile while others say that Lightroom applies the corrections automatically, behind the scenes, based on info embedded in the raw file itself and that selecting the X100 profile would only "double up" on the corrections. Others have said that there is no X100s profile yet but NOT to use the X100 profile because it might make things worse since the sensor has changed and the new X-Trans sensor and lens combination would likely need different corrections than the old one.
I have two versions of the sony 70-400 ssm lens versions I and II. Both lenses are identified as 70-400 SSM. However if I examine the exif data in the xml sidecar for photos taken with these two lenses they have different lens IDs 53 for the first version (70-400mm f/4-5.6 G SSM) of the lens and 69 for the newer version II (70-400mm f/4-5.6 G SSM II). How can I get lightroom to recognize these two lenses with different names.
The main develop module controls have disappeared from the develop window. How do I recover them? I'm working with Lightroom 5.3. The missing controls are the sliders for exposure, contrast, clarity, etc. I must have inadvertantly clicked something that made them disappear but nothing I've tried brings them back. I've never had this experience in the years I've been using Lightroom (since version 1.1).
For some reason images in the library module aren’t as sharp compared to the develop module. If I’m in develop images are nice and sharp but as soon as I select the library you can see the image quality drop and image becomes less blurry!
Sharpening applied in develop module is not shown when switching back to library module. It looks the problem occurs when having size to "FIT". With 1:1 there seams to be no issue. Export also looks fine in 1:1.
I use Mac 10.9.1, LR5.3, Nikon NEF 24Mbit from D600.
After making changes to an image (sharpening, exposure, contrast, etc, etc) in the develop module, when I head over to the library module, the image does not show the latest changes. What's worse is when I export a JPG of the image, it exports the original! What's the point in having LR?
When I move photos from the develop module to the web module they get a garish/reddish look . I want the photos in slide shows to look like they do in the Develop module. How do I do that?
I'm trying out the new Sigma 24-105 DG lens with my 5D M II. The lens profile is not yet in the list of Sigma lenses. I checked and my LR is up to date with the latest version 5.3. Is there a way to find the lens profile to import for LR lens correction function? Or do I just need to wait until LR updates for new lenses?
I have a Fuji XE-1 camera and was pleased to see that this camera is listed as supported in ACR 7.4. However when I installed ACR 7.4 I cold not find the profile for my Fuji XE-1 in either Lightrrom 4 (or 5 Beta) or Photoshop CS6. I can find a profile for my old camera a Fuji X100 but not the new one.. I also use the standard Kit lens with this camera, the 18-55mm OIS F2.8-4 lens and it is not lsted either. Am I doing something wrong as I look for it under camera profiles. Is their a way to load them into ACR from an external website or are they "baked into" ACR 7.4?
I am using an iMac withg the latest version of Photoshop CS6, Lightroom 4 and OSX 10.8.3
How or where can I get the lens correction profile for the Canon 18-135 STM lens in Lightroom 5 ? In effect he is not available in my list of correction lens so my lightroom is up to date apparently.
