P: Possible import issue w in-camera crop factor, Hasselblad fff files

My husband and I have an issue importing Hasselblad fff files (produced by Hasselblad's Phocus) into Lightroom Classic. We often shoot in a different aspect ratio (1:1, x-pan, etc), which is shown on the rear LCD and in the jpg images. It seems the in-camera aspect ratio chosen (as shot) is not reflected on import into Lightroom Classic. Our Lightroom version is 14.0.1.  This happens for both of us, operating the same Hasselblad camera system and different installations of LRC on 2 Mac Studios.

We also have a FUJI system, in which the raw import does show if an alternate in-camera aspect ratio is used.   

Finally, if we instead import the 3fr file into LRC, the crop DOES show. However, the 3fr file is much larger (30 to 40% larger) than the fff - so it would be preferable to use the smaller sized fff.

I am hoping that this may be a bug that can be fixed so that we can find a workaround while the issue is addressed.  Do you have any recommendations?  I can supply a cropped file if you need that.

 

Thank you,

It is possibly due to an issue in Phocus. 

 

To troubleshoot we would need a few examples. 

Ideally, we would like a .3fr capture in a couple of different Aspect Ratios as well as the FFF exported from Phocus. If you are able to supply these, upload them to a file-sharing service and provide us a download link. k

Here is a link to my DropBox folder.  I included a screenshot in Phocus, showing the fff file selected and the aspect ratio is flagged with the "crop" icon.  So Phocus does see the fff file with the crop applied, as shot.  Also included are the 3fr, the fff and the HEIC from the shot.  As I said, LRC imports the 3fr with the crop, but the fff without the crop.  I hope this is something I am doing incorrectly when exporting from Phocus or into LRC.  I would love to import the fff rather than the 3fr.  Looking forward to your reply.  If you want another file, let me know.
