As was described in at least one other post, there are no camera profiles showing in Lightroom Classic. I found the profiles, attempted to import but that did not work. Yes, I clicked on the four squares. The only listing under Profile: is Color, Monochrome and Browse. Browse takes me to the Profile Browser. Under Window -> Panel there is not a Camera Profiles listed.

macOS Big Sur 11.5.1

Are you using the browse option when in the profile selection? Until you mark them as favorites, you will need to browse for them.

My mistake. The first website I looked at for samples didn't have it listed but the second one had samples. I downloaded a raw file and Camera Raw 13.3 on my computer had plenty of profiles. So I don't understand why the OP Doesn't have them. I even converted the image to DNG using the Adobe DNG converter, and had the full selection of profiles with the DNG file.

I found the answer for the missing Camera Calibration panel. It's from 2018. Thanks for the help!

The "Camera Calibration" panel is now called just "Calibration" panel (though the Window menu>Panels still incorrectly shows Camera Calibration). The profile selector within that panel has been removed from that panel and moved to the top of the Basic Panel in Classic 7.3 (which was the headline feature in 7.3). The calibration sliders within the Calibration panel are still there, and should still work, as should the Process version selector."

That is the panel. You probably referring to the panel where you can manage this. Click the plus button at the top left and then choose 'Manage Profiles'.

The profile group you are looking for should be called 'Camera Matching'. If you created custom profiles yourself with something like 'X-Rite ColorChecker', then these profiles end up in a group that is simply called 'Profiles'.

I'm looking for the Camera Profiles panel. Know where I can find that? It's not under the four squares. It's another panel. I've seen it in screen captures.

BTW, you said that the profile was ‘Color’, which made me conclude that you had selected a non-raw file. Your screenshot shows it is called ‘Adobe Color’, which is indeed a raw profile. The list you get is simply a favorites list, so if you only see two profiles then you only selected those as favorites. If you click the four little squares in the right, you should see all the other profiles. Could that be the issue?

I know that there are no camera matching profiles for some cameras, like some Canon R cameras. AFAIK there is no such problem with Sony cameras.

What happens if you do not convert the raw files? I have a Sony A7R and a Sony A7R III and I see all the profiles I am supposed to see (but I do not convert to DNG).

@james_hess_4809339 Of course there was a mark II before Sony introduced the mark III.

Are you certain about that model number? I found reference to an A7RIII (that's 3) but no 2.
