Camera Profile in Lightroom (X20)

Hi, I'm just beginning with a fujifilm X20 camera and .raf files.
I'm trying Lightroom 5.0 and still not sure if I should use Photoshop instead, here is why :
I tryied to found my camera profile, and it's not in lightroom, found X100 not X20.
I tried by the adobe lens profile downloader, I found 5 profiles for the X10, none for the X10.
Googling about that, I found out that the X20 is supported by Camera Raw, but I can't see how I could get that without Photoshop.
So my question is : what should I do :
- don't care about lens correction ?
- do care and chose one of the five available X10 profiles (but how to chose.. between them)
- switch to Photoshop + Camera Raw wich is supposed to support the X20
Thanks for any help

You may be confusing two concepts.
RAW file support for you camera means that LR will open the RAW file.  LR has the Adobe ACR (Adobe Camera Raw) system built in and you don't see it.  Photoshop uses the same ACR system, but you do see it as a separate function. 
There are two ways you can see if your camera is supported by Lightroom or ACR.  One is to find the list of cameras.  The other is to see if it works.
The second concept is lens profiles.  For fixed lens cameras like yours, the lens corrections are built into the data in the RAW file the camera makes.  Unless you have a DSLR with multiple lenses, you can leave the "Lens Corrections" disabled or set to "Default".

  • Camera Profiles in Lightroom 2

    Dear all,
    I'm stuck with applying any other than the embedded camera profile to my pictures. Did install Adobe's camera profiles, but they are not coming up under Lightroom->Calibration->Profile, which seem to have an empty list.
    Any hint, thx in advance

    You need to open a raw file, not a TIFF or JPEG.

  • Adobe Camera Profiles in Lightroom 2.4

    Hello,
    I upgraded to Lightroom 2.4, and installed Camera Raw 5.4. The Sony  A330 is on the support list now. However, I cannot see the profiles under camera calibration in the develop tab. What gives with this? I shut down and reopened, but no good. I didn't reboot. Anyone know why I cannot see my profiles after I installed the update? I saw a video on Youtube, so I sort of know what to look for. I'm not seeing anything except the same Adobe Standard. I read google a bit for quick anwsers, but I am losing too much time now.
    Thanks in Advance,
    BBRoberts

    I'm not sure what you are saying exactly. Adobe Camera RAW 5.4 support Sony A330. I saw a video on Youtube which show the profiles once installed that come up under Camera Calibration with the develop tab. LR 2.4, I believe works with Adobe Camera Profiles 5.4

    What I saw in the video, I cannot do, which is bring up those profiles in order to improve RAW photos to some degree as they were in the camera. I liked the demo and the improvements on color. I'm not saying I understand this very well.

  • How i load the camera profiles to lightroom?

    i spend all my day for this matter. i can't see in camera calibration ( lightroom) the profilesi download . i can see only profile: Embedded
    and nothing elas. what's worng?

    You are using JPEG output so 'Embedded' shows with no camera profiles. Camera profiles are only available when using your camera's RAW file format. If your camera only provides JPEG output, then there is no need to worry about 'Camera Profiles.'
    If you are using a DSLR camera, you can select that option in the camera's menu. Your camera manual explains what RAW formats are available and how to select them. RAW format (.CRW, .CR2, .NEF) files provide the best results in Lightroom.

  • SOLUTION: Beta Camera Profiles Cause Lightroom to Hang

    I finally found what was killing my LR2 install. I was moving and processing images when the CPU went to 50% (one core at 100%).
    I ran a file monitor program and discovered LR2 was scanning *all* the camera profiles for each image selected. This is pointless since I had them all set to ACR 4.4!!!
    So if you're experiencing hangs, go visit the following directory and delete the profiles:
    c:\documents and settings\All Users\Application Data\Adobe\CameraRaw\CameraProfiles

    Thomas, I have a few questions, if you don't mind:
    "When you say scan every profile, do you mean all 300+ profiles"
    Does that mean that the Camera Profile Calibration Beta packages every profile available to Adobe in the download? Thinking about it after reading this post, I only remember choosing the OS being used.
    "or just the 10 or so profiles for the camera model you select?"
    I didn't think that we selected the camera model, instead thought Lightroom determined the camera used (presumably from the camera model information listed in the photographs metadata) and made the profiles for that camera available in the drop-down list.
    Will Adobe consider making camera profiles for each camera model available as a separate file, then let the user choose which camera profile(s) they need and download into a "profile folder." If so, it would be nice if the user could return to the download page and choose additional profiles when needed (such as when one buys the latest/greatest camera) and add them to the profile folder without over-riding or or removing profiles previously downloaded.
    Without going OT about which camera systems people use and why, I would think that everyone would agree that there isn't any need to load all 300+ profiles when you only need the profiles for the camera(s) one uses. This is especially true if it causes the program to run slower than it would without all those profiles one wouldn't use anyway.
    One other thing about the profile presets, if you don't mind - will Adobe also consider adding access to the camera profiles in the the Library Module's Quick Develop area near the Saved Presets option. It would be nice if you could access the profiles without switching over to the Develop Module.
    Thanks, in advance, for any response provided.
    Regards, JML

  • I can't load custom camera profiles into Lightroom 4.3?

    I have googled this found some posts about puting it under the Users folder. However I don't have a library under my username it comes under a folder called Shared.
    I'm using a Mac computer
    I placed my custom profiles in there , however it still won't work.
    Can anyone offer any help in the matter?

    Yes, it won't work if you put them in a folder called Shared.  It's looking in this location: Macintosh HD / Users / [your username] / Library / Application Support / Adobe / CameraRaw / CameraProfiles /
    There should be a Library folder under your username - I've never heard of a Mac install without one (i.e. as far as I know, the Mac OS won't work).  It's a hidden folder though.

  • ACR 5.7 can see camera profiles in Bridge CS4 but not in Lightroom 2.7

    When utilizing ACR5.7 through Bridge CS4 - the cameral profiles are easily applied for my .NEF files (Nikon D300) but when I am in Lightroom 2.7 the camera profiles are not available unless I convert the nef to DNG.  I have tried to search the web and these forums but I am unable to locate the answer to my problem:

  • Camera profiles and Canon Software

    Hi,
    Why are camera profiles in Lightroom different than the same name picture style chosen in Digital Photo Professional? They should produce the same EXACT version of the RAW file. I say they HAVE to, because otherwise who is right - who´s got the true colors (e.g. Faithful style is supposed to represent colors exactly if shot at 5200K, yet DPP Faithful differs from LR faithful????)
    Also, is there a way to convert other picture styles one has created into Lightroom profiles perhaps through some use of DNG Profile Editor?
    Thanks,
    Juan

    They should produce the same EXACT version of the RAW file.
    The profiles are meant to give approximately the same rendering concerning tone and color. You cannot render the exact same thing as Canon uses proprietary algorithms which Lightroom cannot use. The profiles just approximate those using Lightroom's RAW engine. Also they will only come close if you use default settings in your camera, so no highlight priority, no added saturation, etc. If you want the exact same thing, shoot jpeg or convert the RAW to tiff in DPP. That said, my experience is that the camera matching profiles come very close to out-of-camera rendering as long as you don't modify the styles.
    I say they HAVE to, because otherwise who is right - who´s got the true colors (e.g. Faithful style is supposed to represent colors exactly if shot at 5200K, yet DPP Faithful differs from LR faithful????)
    None of Canon's styles give accurate rendering. That is not what they are meant to do. They are meant to be visually attractive, which is very different from accurate. Faithful is not really scene referred correct color. See for some measurements of that on one of the more accurate cameras, the Canon 5D mk II, here. The way to get correct color, if that is what you are interested in, is to shoot a colorchecker chart and use Adobe's free DNG profile editor to generate a calibrated profile for your camera.
    Also, is there a way to convert other picture styles one has created into Lightroom profiles perhaps through some use of DNG Profile Editor?
    No. Would be neat, but is not currently possible without a lot of manual labor. You can shoot a colorchecker and by comparing the rendering in DNG profile editor to that in DPP visually and using the patch tools, you might be able to sort of get there but that is going to be very tedious. It would be nice if we were able to give DNG Profile Editor a different target than perfect rendering of the colorchecker, because right now, the only way to do it is visual.

  • Nikon 1 V3 profile for Lightroom

    Please update the Nikon V3 Adobe Standard profile for Lightroom 5.4.  I regret to say it is not nearly as good as the corresponding profile for Camera Raw 8.5.

    I have temporarily made a copy of the Nikon 1 V3 Adobe Standard profile used by Camera Raw and added it to my User camera profiles in Lightroom 5.4.  Is this an appropriate stopgap measure?

  • New camera profile not "appearing" in ACR, but does in Lightroom

    I recently created a camera profile for a Nikon D200, using an X-Rite Colorchecker chart photo and the Chart feature in the DNG Editor.  I exported the camera profile.  When I go to the Calibration tab in ACR 5.5, the new profile does not appear in the drop down list with the other camera profiles.  However, when I go to the Develop module in Lightroom 2.5, the new profile does appear in the drop down list there.
    I am running Windows 7.  Snooping around my root drive I find that if I look within the Users\User Name\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\CameraRaw\CameraProfiles directory (referenced in the Fraser and Schewe CS4 Camera Raw book as the Vista location for the profiles) I can find no camera profiles and when I place the new profile there it still does not appear in ACR.  When I look in ProgramData\Adobe\CameraRaw\CameraProfiles\Camera\Nikon D200    directory I can see the regular set of camera profiles for the camera, as well as the one I created, but as I previously stated, the newly created profile does not appear in the ACR list.
    A side note - I did some experimentation with camera profile names.  I added "XX" to the end of the Nikon Vivid profile name (not the extension), and then that profile no longer appears in the ACR list of profiles.  I removed the extra letters and then the profile reappears in the ACR list of profiles.  Seemed odd behavior to me.  I also noticed that the profile I created with DNG Editor is noticeably smaller than the others provided by Adobe (28K compared to 110k).
    Hope someone has a suggestion for me.

    Your reminder about both Photoshop (main) and Bridge needing to be shut down for changes to take effect reminded me that I had Bridge set to "auto-start at log-in".  So I checked and it was still running (shown with the other hidden icons).  When I "shut it down" from the UI I had thought it was fully terminated.  So I completely shut Bridge down, restarted, and the new profile now appears.
    Thanks for the reminder/pointer in the right direction.

  • Camera Profile options suddenly missing in Lightroom...

    Okay... so I noticed yesterday that (for some reason) my camera calibration profile options have disappeared, and my only option is "Adobe Standard". I used to have all the others (camera standard, camera standard 2, adobe standard 2, ACR, etc), but they have vanished.
    I'm running Windows 7 32bit.
    I thought maybe it was just Lightroom 3.5, so I un-installed and re-installed... no luck.
    I un-installed 3.5 and re-installed 3.4.1.. no luck.
    The camera profiles are in the proper directory (based on other forum posts I've found)... no luck.
    I've tried removing the camera profiles from the directory and re-installing... no luck.
    Not sure where they went, or what happened, or how I can get them back. Colors just aren't the same without them
    Any ideas? I searched for hours on different forums and support sites, with no avail... Am I missing something? Is there another software besides Lightroom that needs to be installed? I'm out of ideas.
    Cheers.

    The list of profiles displayed is dependent on the camera used to shoot the image. Typically, cameras from Nikon, Canon and some Pentax will have a range of profiles whereas others vendors (e.g. Sony, Panasonic and Olympus) will only have Adobe Standard. I suggest that you check which camera model is showing fewer profiles than you expect and report back. Someone will then be able to tell you whether it's got a a full or limited range of profiles.

  • Lightroom 5.7 Not Showing Camera Profiles from DNG File

    Hello,
    I just installed Adobe DNG Converter 9.0 and converted some Nikon D7200 fles to DNG for import into Lightroom 5.7. This works fine except for the Camera Specific profiles not showing up. Only Adobe Standard shows up.
    When I open the same DNG file in Adobe Camera Raw in Photoshop CS6, [it] properly shows all the camera specific profiles for the D7200. What am I doing wrong?
    Here is what the develop module Camera Profile drop down menu looks like in LR 5.7
    And in Photoshop CS6 Adobe Camera RAW ( ACR ) 8.7.1.311
    Thanks for your insight.

    gonzalu,  the reason is because the profiles are installed separately for Camera Raw vs Lightroom. 
    If you're using Lr 5.x, then to get the extra D7200 profiles visible in Lr, you'll need to manually copy/install them.  Try looking here:
      C:\ProgramData\Adobe\CameraRaw\CameraProfiles\Camera\Nikon D7200
    and copy the contents of that folder to here:
      C:\Users\USERNAME\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\CameraRaw\CameraProfiles
    (where you should substitute your actual username, above).
    Then restart Lr and the profiles should be visible now.
    (You don't need to do this step if you're running Lr CC, because the new profiles are included with that installation.)

  • Lightroom 4.3 Update and Camera Profiles.

    Hello there!
    First let me start by mentioning that im running Lightroom on a Mac OS X (10.8.2).
    I was running v4.2 for a while until the v4.3 update came out about a week and a half ago.
    I updated to v4.3 and everything was working fine until I noticed something today.
    Im having problems with Camera Profiles. I do run the latest 2012 process.
    The problem to be exact is when I open catalogs that were made with v4.2
    I scroll down to Camera Profiles and here is what i get.
    I have presets that automatically correspond to the "film" profiles below.
    But ever since the upgrade it automatically goes to ACR 4.6 instead of the "film" profile.
    I know for a fact that with v4.2 I only had these profiles:
    Adobe Standard
    Camera Landscape
    Camera Neutral
    Camera Portrait
    Camera Standard
    Camera Vivid
    with the addition of the "film" profiles.
    After updating, thats what I get when opening v4.2 catalogs.
    Heres the weird part.
    When i create a v4.3 catalog, all of those Camera Profiles disappear.
    leaving only these:
    Adobe Standard
    Camera Landscape
    Camera Neutral
    Camera Portrait
    Camera Standard
    Camera Vivid
    and nothing else.
    When I looked at the Camera Profile folder, the ones I added are there but doesnt show up in Lightroom.
    Mac HD > Library > Application Support > Adobe > CameraRaw > CameraProfiles
    Is this a bug or is there a fix for this? Does v4.3 read Camera Profiles from another location?
    If so please help!

    I would suggest a two-step process:
    1) The problem could be due to a corrupt Preference File. This file can go "funny" and is then responsible for all kinds of strange behavior of Lr. The remedy is replacing the Preference File.
    Re-installing Lr, or upgrading Lr does not replace the Preference File since it is designed to stay intact during upgrades.
    See here for where to find the Preference file for your OS: http://helpx.adobe.com/lightroom/kb/preference-file-locations-lightroo m-4.html
    See here for how to go about Replacing the Preference File: http://lightroomers.com/replacing-the-lightroom-preference-file/745/
    2) If that does not help: Un-install Lr and delete the downloaded Lr 4.3 file. The file might have become damaged during download.
    Then download it again and install.
