Question

Lens Profile info not automatic

A few months ago I switched my Canon camera system from the 5D Mark IV to the R5 body and all RF lenses. I’ve processed many RAW images in Bridge and all of my Canon RF lenses have always been in the Optics > Profile.

 

As of today, when I now go to Optics > Profile > Use profile corrections > Setup (Default) > Lens Profile > Make (None) > Unable to locate a matching lens profile automatically, my RF 70-200 is never contained in this info (but my other Canon lenses are) which means I have to do this manually. Would anyone know why? Thanks for any info.

I recently had to reinstall all my data in my repaired MBPro manually (because TimeMachine refused to recognise me as the owner of my own Backup!).

 

During this exercise I found that all my own ACR settings (I do have a lot of them!) needed to be in a folder called User Settings inside of my:

Users Library/Application Support/Adobe/Camera Raw/Settings folder.

 

Try putting your new Lens Profiles there; mark them as Favorites; and see if it helps.

 

It could also be that your Lens Profiles are so new that they will need a new ACR Update  before they are available to you in ACR.

 

This is all just a thought but I hope that it helps.

Hi Ann and thanks for this info. I'm not sure I understand the process you suggest but I'll give it a try. Thanks again.
