ACR does not show all pixels - some cut off

[HooliganImages]

Possible Bug.  

ACR 16.1

Mac OS Sonoma 14.2.1

Happens in both LRc and PS - no surprise there.

Profile Corrections turned OFF 

Following images taken with a Nikon Z9.  

Look on left and right side for differences.

NX Studio first shows correct file size per Nikon 8256x5504.

Next image is Fast Raw Viewer which shows file size as larger 8280x5520

Here's the rub though - look at the left side first and see how pixels to the left of small silver Bialetti are missing.  It's not the proflie/lens correction that is off and I tried the different crop modes.  Also looks at the right sixe and you see a brown wood handle in the NX Studio and FRV image that is missing from ACR.

I recalled that I had an old version of Elements and it has ACR 15.4 and that rendered the complete RAW file.  I think something is up with ACR 16.1 maybe.

After further testing, I think this may be an issue caused by Fast Raw Viewer.  I will report it to them as well.

I've moved your post from Photoshop to Adobe Camera Raw where you are more likely to get help

According to FRV support their response, but wonder why ACR doesnt show all the pixels after viewing in FRV.  

FastRawViewer doesn't invent pixels.
FastRawViewer never writes to raw files, never changes raw files, and of
course never crops raw files.
Raw files are opened in FastRawViewer as read-only.

FastRawViewer displays pixel dimensions according to the setting in
FastRawViewer Preferences (please see page 185 of the FastRawViewer manual,
the manual comes with FastRawViewer, it is a fully searchable standard PDF,
and you can open it through FastRawViewer main Menu -> Help -> 'PDF manual').

According to Nikon MakerNotes tag 0x001b, and this is a part of the NEF file
itself, Nikon Z 9 uncropped raw is 8280 by 5520.

After the response from FRV above, I am thinking this is an ACR issue.  I changed the viewer setting in FRV to show the maximum visible area which they tell me is the pixels they report for a Z9 - 8280 x 5520.  In ACR I am no longer seeing that if I have been in FRV.  They say they open the RAW file in Read Only.  I don't know what the cause is, but I do see there are pixels cut off in ACR 16.1 but not 15.4.

Note that today is Christmas Eve Day and Adobe has an official holiday until after the New Year. If you don't get a reply by the first few days of January, tag me and I'll tag staff for you. (Type @ then click my name from the shortcut menu.)

Possibly a volunteer will be able to assist before then.

SOLVED - but not without help from a number of sources including the great people at FRV.  

When I made a preset for Linear profile with Auto applied, I must have also used Auto for Geometry and that is what was happening.
