P: Rings/Vignetting with Tamron 17-70 Lens on Fuji XT-4

Hey there,

 

I hope you can help me with this, it's driving me insane.

 

I noticed the problem first when shooting into a blue sky with clouds at a wedding, then I saw the problem on a table the next shoot as well. Now I checked with a white wall and found that Lightroom actually does this to my newly picked up Tamron 17-70 2.8 (on a Fuji XT-4)

 

I'm having crazy rings and vignetting with the Tamron lens, first thought it's the lens, but it's Lightroom adding the crazy rings. Since when I'm importing there's nothing, but when i hover over the image and select it, it takes a second and then Lightroom adds them to the picture, as if it where implementing a lens correction, but horribly wrong. Turning off Lens Profile / Correction doesn't do anything, once it's there it's there. Also the JPEG looks fine, it's only the raw file. 

 

Attached are the two images, it's easy to tell which one is the JPEG sooc and which is the RAW file out of Lightroom with the "vignette" 

 

Can you please tell me how to fix this, and what is going on there?

Hello. In what area of ​​the menu does “Lens Optimization” appear on the Fujifilm X-T4? It is the solution to the problem that Tamron Spain has given me, but I can't find it in the camera menu.

Glad to have found someone sharing my problem. Here is some more insights, that confirm what we predicted here: 

 

I am in contact with Tamron Germany and they're in contact with Japan.  What we've got so far:

 

- It is probably a bug with the combination of a Mac and Adobe (Camera Raw, LR, PS etc.)

- In Capture One and other editing programs the problem is gone. 

- And Tamron said that they tried on a Windows PC with Lightroom and also had NO problem.

 

Hoping for a quick fix here Adobe.

Cuando proceso las fotografías RAW en Fujifilm X Raw Studio los anillos desaparecen.

Definitivamente parece un problema del perfil de la lente de Adobe.

Espero que Adobe aporte una solución rápida.

Bueno... el efecto NO desaparece. Si acaso es menor, pero sigue ahí la parte del anillo más claro.

Añado el mismo RAW abierto con Affinity Photo, hay viñeteo, pero el efecto desaparece:

In ACR, without Lens profile, then with lens profile, slight change ion vignett, not so much in distortion

Continuing observations

1. Bringing up in ACR, same problem, so perhaps within the RAW conversion by Adobe.

2. Below in ON1 Photo RAW 2022, less vignette. No diffraction pattern.

I had the same result in ACR with vignette, and the same correct look in Capture One.

 

So we narrowed it down to the Adobe RawConversion, where's the "Adobe, please update this bug"-Button? 🙂

You might want to share the RAF on DropBox or other share so that members can look at what happens in their computer.

Great idea, thanks!

Same issue on my PC with your sample. So not likely to be some setting you may have implemented in LrC.

 

Screenshot of authors sample. LrC v11.5, Develop module, no edits.

 

Oh, and as for Lens Correcions, nothing odd, Built-in Lens Profile applied as is normal (even non Fuji glass)

 

And just in case

And just to be clear, not a Preferences issue in my rig

PS: - Fuji XT-4 and Lightroom are both updated to their latest versions/firmware

- Just tested with a trial of Caputre One, no Problem there.

In you Fuji Camera do you have Lens Optimization set to "on" - if so, set to 'off'?

Yes, it's greyed out and off when the tamron is attached.
