I have just returned from a trip to Norway and realized, that some photo have built-in lens profile and some are missing. (all RAW photos) Lens is Lumix Leica 12-60mm 2.8-4-0 and Lumix Leica 50-200mm 2.8-4.0.
Panos and HDR photos show with build-in lens profile, but not the photos used for e.g. pano.
Anybody experienced this before?

Lightroom or Lightroom Classic?

Using lightroom Classic and Lumix G9 camera.

Lumix G9 is a Micro Four Thirds camera and the lens profile should be applied by the camera, not Lightroom Classic.

Are you sure it's not the other way round? A panorama image never has a lens profile, because it is not an image shot through some panorama lens. It is stitched using multiple shots.

Hi Johan,
I have attached screenshots - one of the pano made in Lightroom (LrC) and the firste photo in the pano. There you can see that the pano shows Built-in profile and the single photo does not. (4 out of 7 photos in the pano, shows built-in profile)

There are reports that Lightroom sometimes does not show the remark that a built-in profile has been applied, even though it was applied. That is probably what happened here with the original raw files. The raw file sure looks like a file that was profile corrected (no trace of any vignetting).

I checked some of my panoramas taken with a Sony A7R camera, and indeed Lightroom reports that a built-in profile was applied if I took the panorama shots with a lens that has an embedded profile. That is debatable however. Yes, a profile was applied on the individual images before they were stitched, but that is not the same as applying a profile to the panorama photo itself. And that is what is suggested here.
Anyway, I wouldn't worry about this. Your raw images must have been correct too, otherwise the panorama would not have this remark either. And if you think they were not profile corrected, then ask yourself the following question: How do you think a profile would improve this image? What problem do you have that you think would be solved by applying a lens profile? Quite frankly I can't think of anything (and that is why I'm pretty sure a profile was applied after all).
