RAW Files Have Unwanted Import Adjustments

When importing RAW files from either Canon or Fuji cameras, many of the sliders in the Develop module have values other than zero. I have no Develop Settings to apply during Import at all in that menu. Additionally, I cannot simply click on the individual slider cursors to zero them out. Reset button does nothing. I have to manually reset each value by clicking into the window and typing "0". 

LR 13.5.1

MacBook Pro M2 Pro 64 GB

OS 15.0.1 (but the problem was occuring in the previous OS as well)

Is this a bug or another setting I can access to control this?

1. Import Dialog

 

2. /Preferemces/Presets/

Thanks. I discovered that the Preferences panel had RAW Defaults set to Adobe Landscape for some odd reason.

No, this is not a bug. It sounds like you have set a preset as camera default in Preferences - Presets. This explains why clicking the Reset button does not zero out those settings. That button resets the sliders to their camera default settings, not (necessarily) to zero.

You nailed the solution! For some odd reason, in Prefs RAW Defaults was set to Adobe Landscape. But, I am curious – In Apply During Import > Develop Settings, I have always had "None" in the drop-down. So, the setting in the Prefs panel overrides the Import dialog?

They are two different things and can be combined. You can set one preset as camera default, and apply another preset in 'Apply during import'. Setting the latter to 'None' does not influence your choice of a camera default preset.
