Question

Disable DNG Embedded lens profile

Hello everyone, I have an annoing problem when importing DNG files into Lightroom Classic from a DJI Matrice M350.

I need a "very RAW" file, without any correction, to use in photogrammetry software (Agisoft Metashape).

In-camera made corrections modify image geometry so hardly that I get a very strong error (near 70cm).

I'd like to import image in LR without lens profile, even though it is embedded into DNG file.

Is it possible?

Thank you very much

See here for how to use Exiftool to remove embedded lens profiles from DNGs:

I haven't tried this in years, so I can't verify that it still works.

Probably not. Embedded lens profiles can be turned off for a few new cameras, but I don't think for any of the DJI drones.
