P: Lens Profile requests and information

  • May 3, 2011

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.

We have begun the process of profiling lenses for the Sony Alpha system. For example, in Camera Raw 8.3 / Lightroom 5.3 we provided new lens profiles for three major zoom lenses:

Sony 16-35mm F2.8 ZA SSM
Sony 24-70mm F2.8 ZA SSM
Sony 70-200mm F2.8 G SSM II

You can expect more in the future.

Can someone send me a non-Raw lens profile for Canon EF-S 15-85mm F3.5-6.5.

Lens profiles for non-raw files are very rare. Adobe only created a handful themselves when lens profiles where first introduced about 15 years back. You're only hope is that someone created a proffile for there own use, which is a very long shot, especially given the procedure is time consuming, requires bright even illumination, etc. I've provided a link below to a blog post that I wrote back in 2010. Would I go through this process again? Not while we still have a sun in the sky!

Ah, @Ian Lyons -  your post takes me back. I remember those larval days of Lens Profiles and printing calibration targets and then shooting them. In fact, the first time I met Tom Hogarty was when I was presenting Lens Profiles to the Twin Cities Lightroom User Group. He came up afterward and introduced himself and told me that was 'his' feature I presented.  Like you, I would not be interested in building my own again.

Dear Adobe,

 

Upon recently purchasing the Nikon AF-S 120-300 f/2.8E FL ED VR lens I have discovered that Adobe does not currently have a lens profile for this particular lens. This is a bit unsettling in that this lens came out in 2020 (with the release of the Nikon D6 camera) and is one of their top level professional lenses used in the industry. Please consider this addition to the next update for LrC (Lightroom Classic). I'm currently running latest version of LrC (14.2). Thank you.

Hey, @simon28997170cvbr. Welcome to the Lightroom Community. I'll help you figure this out. 

 

The specific lens isn't supported, as per https://adobe.ly/4hrKqb8;

What format are the lens correction profiles you've received? You can follow this conversation to import Lens Profiles manually: https://adobe.ly/3FhpxCd

 

Let me know if it helps. Thanks!

Would it be possible to request one please?

Hello everyone,


I’d like to request lens correction profiles for these key professional Nikon NIKKOR Z lenses—some of the most important models in the professional mirrorless Z series:

 

• Nikon NIKKOR Z 14-24mm f/2.8 S
• Nikon NIKKOR Z 24-70mm f/2.8 S
• Nikon NIKKOR Z 70-200mm f/2.8 VR S

 

These profiles are very necessary for a smooth workflow in Camera Raw, Lightroom Classic, and the entire Lightroom ecosystem. Currently, it seems the automatic corrections don’t cover these models, so having official Adobe profiles would be a huge help.

I had the 24-70mm f/2.8 S for a short period some years ago, and the files taken with it do have a built-in lens profile.

I have never used the two others, but I always thought all the Z lenses had built-in profiles.

Don't you see the text Built-in Lens Profile applied at the bottom of the Lens corrections panel?

Yes, I do have all three of the lenses I mentioned, along with the Nikon Z8. However, I’ve noticed vignetting with the 24-70mm f/2.8 S. Although the camera settings appear in Lightroom when editing the profile, the vignetting remains there.

I also discovered that the camera offers a “Vignette Control” setting with options for High, Normal, Low, and Off. Since I shoot exclusively in RAW, I assumed that this control would only affect non-RAW images. Originally set to Normal, I’ve now switched it to High to see if it reduces or eliminates the vignetting.

I now suspect that these built-in profiles might be linked to the Vignette Control setting I mentioned. If that’s the case, then setting it to High should resolve the issue. I’m still not sure whether the problem lies with Lightroom, my camera, or another setting I’m not yet aware of. I’ll continue to investigate further. I also inquired about Adobe profiles—because my old camera worked perfectly with them, but I’m still learning how to use the settings on my Nikon’s Z8.

Hello Adobe Community, I would like to request a lens profile for the Viltrox 35mm f1.7 E mount lens released in December 2024. It appears creating a lens profile is no longer supported and I was directed to make a post. Hope to see it in the next LrC update!

Does anyone know if there is a lens correction profile for the Google Pixel 9 Pro XL? I don't see profiles for any google pixel cameras, unless I'm missing something.

 

If anyone is familiar with how to correct images taken with this camera, I' be appreciative of any help.

Hi @N_Smith! Welcome to the community!

I apologize for the incorrect information in my previous message. For all Google Pixel cameras since the Pixel 3, the lens profiles are embedded in the raw DNG files. You can see them in the Lens Corrections panel by clicking the "i" at the bottom left corner of the sub-panel.

Thanks!

Wondering if in Lightroom a profile for the Fuji GF 30 mm f/5.6 T/S will be available in the future? Distortion is (unlike the Canon T/S lenses) visible so correction is a sort of mandatory. as architectural photographer. Now we have to use Capture One Pro which has a profile for this lens. Postproduction wise not very convenient to use 2 programs next to each other or to switch to Capture One Pro alone.

in the future, to find the best place to post your message, use the list here, https://community.adobe.com/

p.s. i don't think the adobe website, and forums in particular, are easy to navigate, so don't spend a lot of time searching that forum list. do your best and we'll move the post (like this one has already been moved) if it helps you get responses.

I couldn't find the option for lens correction for the NIKKOR Z 24–70 mm 1:4 S on any software by Adobe.

 

Is there any solution for this?

Or was that simply not added yet?

i want to use the other lense (telephoto lense) which i have on my main camera but this option is not available on Lr camera. I'm stuck with the wide angle lens. i want to use the telephoto lens too. so, allow this feature on android.
