P: Lens Profile requests and information

Lens Profiles apply to Camera Raw, Lightroom Classic, and the Lightroom Ecosystem products (Desktop, Mobile, and Web).

 

Lens Profiles are available for a wide array of lenses. Not every lens is currently profiled, and of those profiled, not all are profiled for all camera and file types. For example, there may be a profile for a particular lens and camera mount for the raw file but not for the JPEG. Normally, profiles for JPEG are not supplied unless the camera does not apply a correction (e.g. iPhone, GoPro). 

A complete list of profiled lenses can be found here: https://helpx.adobe.com/camera-raw/kb/supported-lenses.html 
other helpful info: https://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/multi/lens-profile-support.html#Supported_lenses 


Lens correction for all Micro 4/3 (MFT) lenses and many newer cameras, including Panasonic and Olympus cameras, and other cameras (including Fuji X,  Leica Q, and Nikon Z series)plus many point-and-shoot models from Canon) happens automatically without any interaction by the customer. A notation will appear in the Lens Correction Panel designating this. 

Note: You should not expect to find any profiles listed in the pop-up notes, because the corrections are always applied.

If you are unsure whether your lens is supported automatically refer to the "info" button/icon on the Lens Corrections tab.

If your lens is not on the supported lens list and is not one of those whose correction happens automatically, you can create your own profiles using the Adobe Lens Profile Creator. Download the Adobe Lens Profile Creator: https://helpx.adobe.com/photoshop/digital-negative.html#resources 

If you desire an Adobe-created Lens Profile, please make your request in the comments of this thread. Be sure to include the full lens model/description and the camera mount you desire. ETAs for new lens profiles are not available.

Keep in mind that lens profiles cannot be made for tilt/shift lenses, and the tilt or shift settings cannot be recorded in the Exif data. A feature request exists here for Tilt-Shift Lens Profiles: https://community.adobe.com/t5/camera-raw-ideas/p-lens-profiles-for-tilt-shift-lens/idi-p/12221166 

 

Note: The Lens Profile Creator is currently supported for Windows and 32-bit Versions of the Mac OS. 

 

ETAs are not available for any lens request.

Hi!

 

I just bought the new Sony FE 20-70 mm F4 G Lense and while trying to edit the photos, I released that there is currently no lense profile in the lens corrections menu for the Sony FE20-70 mm F4 G.

 

Considering that this lens is quit new, I would assume that the lens is still missing because it is a very new lens and Adobe has not yet had time to create a profile for this specific lens?

 

Lightroom Classic Version: 12.1 Release

Camera Raw Version: 15.1

"there is currently no lense profile in the lens corrections menu for the Sony FE20-70 mm F4 G."

 

That lens is designed for full-frame Sony mirrorless cameras, and it appears that at least some of the cameras embed a built-in Sony lens profile in the raw files, with instructions to LR not to allow the lens profile to be disabled. For such lenses, Adobe generally doesn't provide its own lens profiles, since the manufacturer is supplying them.

 

If you see "Built-in Lens Profile applied", that indicates the raw file contains an embedded lens profile and LR is automatically applying it (as instructed by Sony).  Here's an example photo from a Sony a7R V taken with that lens:

 

You can apply your own lens corrections on top of the built-in lens profile (and try to undo the built-in corrections), but you can't disable the built-in profile.

 

If you don't see "Built-in Lens Profile applied" in your Lens Corrections panel, please post a screenshot of what you do see, along with the precise camera model.

The built in profile only corrects for CA, not for distortion. The distortion is pretty bad....

Nikon Z 14-30!   I need a profile that actually makes the correct lens corrections. This built in thing you say should work is garbage!!!!!!

What exact camera model do you have? Depending on the model, Nikon may not allow their built-in profile to be disabled.

Hello,
This is TTArtisan company. As you can see, there are many people in the comments who want you to make TTArtisan lens files. Maybe we can reach a collaboration, looking forward to your reply. Thank you!

Using Adobe camera RAW I notice that there are no profiles for older Olympus vintage lenses, not one it seems. Olympus was a prolific film camera and lens manufacturer, with hundreds of different lens designs produced over many decades and subsequently became a digital camera manufacturer. So why is it that that there is a plethora of lens profiles for just about every other lens manufacturer from that same period, ( some of which I have never heard of ), and no profiles for Olympus lenses???

IDEE : ACTUALISATION DES OBJECTIFS FUJI FILM  (LRC - PSD)

 

Pouvez vous actualiser d'urgence les objectifs FUJI Film ?

L'objectif  le plus récent date en effet de 2017 (déjà 5 ans sans actualisation pour FUJI Film...).

Me concernant j'ai 4 objectifs FUJI Film et ne peux en utiliser aucun alors que le plus ancien date de 2018.

Request Adobe add a profile for the micro-NIKKOR 55mm f/2.8 AI-s manual lens.  This lens has been in continuous production from 1979 to the present.
