Lens correction and auto sharpen

With update a few weeks ago, I have a couple of issues. I have already talked to Adobe by phone without resolution, and a higher tier was suppose to contact me about it, but never did. I would like to talk to a live person, if that is possible.  I did just post my question here a couple of days ago without a response. 

1. I used to be able to select all, click lens profile correct, and syn. It would correct for each lense I used on that shoot. Now it uses one lens for the whole shoot. I know I can work around this with filters, but it's cumbersome.

2. There is now an automatic sharpening applied on import. Why is this happening and how do I get rid of it? 

Thank you.

You may have inadvertently changed the lens model for one or more of your lenses. This will show as Setup> Default in the Lens Corrections panel Profile settings. Check a raw image file shot with each of your lenses and make sure the correct model is showing. If not try setting it to 'Auto,' which should automatically select the correct lens model. If it doesn't tell me the lens model and I'll see if a matching profile is availble. Keep in mind many lenses do not have a matching lens profile for JPEG image files. Are you shooting raw or JPEG files?

 

Sorry, 1:1 Zoom is 100%.

When LrC does a major update (10>11) the catalog file is automatically upgraded and a new v11 working catalog is created. The old catalog is not deleted, but it's always prudent to do a LrC backup before performing any update. Give it a try.

Thank you. I was concerned to upgrade, because I heard I needed to do something with catalogs and/or backup. I was afraid of messing that up.

Thank you. It was not recognizing  my Tamron 2.8 70-200. But, it always did before. I had to set it up. It works now.

 

Everything else is good. I haven't used LR in a year and a half and forgot some things.  It is slower now than it used to be.  Thank you for your help.

Make sure Lens Corrections Profile Setup is set to Auto or Default. If set to Custom that will cause the issue you are seeing.

 

Concerning Sharpening this is normal when shooting raw files instead of JPEGs. Raw files need capture sharpening applied. The Deatil panel settings should be made while viewing at 1:1 Zoom view. Any of the raw import Default Develop Settings can be changed. See the below article for more details.
