bummer: Bridge and camra raw auto crops raw files

         For the life of me,  I remain at a loss for a way I can 'make' Bridge and Camera Raw regain the full Raw image file data that the original image captured. What appears PS 2020, Camera Raw12 and Bridge 2020 Apps are a flattened (absent lens distortion) and cropped file (as if it were a jpg image).

        I know that the full range of 'uncropped' image data has been retained in the original file, because; image viewers such as Windows Photo (OS10) presents the image in full. By Full I mean, with the the lens distortion, and vignetting of the 24mm lens. I want this distrortion, I want the full image, yet PS Bridge and Camera Raw 'corrects it for me' which is something - I do not want.

       Very Furstrating: I compose in viewfinder, do not crop post procuction, and trust that want I saw when I clicked the shutter will be what I'll see, and have to work with when I use Adobe PS, Camera Raw and Bridge products.

       I have tired to: 'undo not crop' in Camera raw - but its grayed out.

       I can't locate the lens profile in Camera Raw for a LX5 Lica  DCVAARIO-SUMMICRON 1:2.0-3.3/5.1-19.2 ASPH

       Also can't locate program preference folders that might hold previously worked itterations of Raw files from PS 5 & Bridge with Camera Raw 6 (2010) version)

       Any assistance will help retain what white hair I have left on my head.

Thanks Bill

Before 
i shooted Pic Aspect was 3:2
then Bridge automaticly CROPPED

After
chenge Aspect is 4:3
then there is no CROPPED icon

note
3:2 is film standard
4:3 is digital Cam sencer standard (maybe)

KKT2,

 

By jove I think you've got it. 

 

I always have my crop setting at custom and as such I never even think to look or check for this. I do hope that ?BG checks this out as it might be his answer.

Turn off lens correction in camera raw.

Thanks but I did that, made no difference.

Oddly.

If I open the image in MS Photos, before opening it in Bridge or CRaw see the original full image appears. However if it is opened in Bridge or CR and then opened in MS Photos the image will appear croped.

Is there a way I  can upload a jpg example to this forum?
