Pentax Lens Correction in LR4

Is it just me or I don't have Pentax in Lens Correction tab in the Develop Module of LR4? How can I add it like it was in LR3?

I was running into the same issue with the correct lens not being shown.  I have a Nikon D7000 with a Sigma 17-50 F2.8 lens.  When I went into the Lens Corrction Panel my specific model wasn't showing up.  Normally when I import my photos I "Copy to DNG" to keep the files organized better.  So I imported a photo as a .NEF and what do you know, the lens auto detected without any issues.  From this I found a workaround so I can keep using the .DNG format and have the correct lens adjustments.
*** Work Around ***
Import a photo as a RAW .NEF (or whatever your camera creates)
Open the "Lens Correction" in the Develop Panel and ensure the lens you use is selected
Save the settings as a "User Preset" under the Develop Panel
Open the Import Window and select "Apply During Import"
Select the "User Preset" that was created
Select "Copy to DNG" as the import type
Once the preset has been set on import it will apply the setting and then convert the file to a .DNG with the settings applied.  So at that point if you go to the Develop Panel and choose Lens Correction, the correct lens will show up in the list with it's adjustments.

  • LX7 Lens Correction in LR4

    I see that my Lumix LX-7 is supported by LR 4.3 (Camera Raw 7.3), but when in the Lens Correction portion of the Develop module, I can't find any reference to Panasonic or Lumix.  Leica lenses are listed, but I can't find any that are equivalent to the LX-7's lens. 
    Can you suggest which Leica lens I should choose?
    Is there a reason that the lens is not automatically selected the same way my other lenses (Canon, Sigma, Tokina) are for my 7-D?

  • With LR4, I can't select a Pentax lens for my Pentax camera

    I have a Pentax SLR (Pentax *ist DS) with a Pentax lens (smc PENTAX-DA*50-135mm F2.8 ED [IF] SDM) but LR4 does not allow me to choose manually this Pentax lens when I have taken in Jpeg mode.
    The Pentax brand don't appear while the uncompatible brands as Apple, Nikon, Canon or Sony appear in the proposed list.
    The brand Pentax is explicitly in the EXIF informations.
    This is a bug

    Pentax themselves provide the profiles. A full list is here:

    That lens is listed. Most profiles are created for Raw files, not for JPEG.

  • Lr4 Available Lens Correction Profiles

    Hi, I recently purchased LR4 - 4.2 (as a download) and installed in onto my PC, running Windows 7, 64bit. I cannot get the "Lens Corrections" tool, to work correctly. When editing images, the lens correction tool, only displays a small sample size (like 4 or 6 lenses approx.), of lenses to choose from, however (only once) it displayed a complete lists of lenses to suit my Nikon D800E, including the lens profile I required at the time, being the Zeiss 50mm f1.4, so I am aware that Lr4 is capable of facilitating my lens profile requirements. I have previously seen a comprehensive list displayed within Lr4, but it had disappeared? I am unable to solve this issue myself-sorry. This is frustrating, can you please help me rectify this issue. In the mean time, I have resorted to using the ePaperPress product, PT Lens-which has helped me immensely.. Thank you.

    The Zeiss 50mm F1.4 has very low distortion and virtually no vignetting at F2 and above. I doubt you will see much correction using a lens profile with it except perhaps at F1.4. Just make sure you have 'Remove Chromatic Aberration' checked under the 'Color' tab as your LR 'Default' setting, which is lens independent.
    As Lee Jay pointed out you probably saw more profiles (only once) because it was a NEF raw format file. Unless you have a good reason to shoot only in JPEG format with your Nikon D800, I'd set it to shoot NEF raw files or raw +JPEG. If interested there is a lively discussion on this very topic:

  • "Pentax Corporation" vs. "Pentax" for Lens Correction

    I have a Pentax camera. Lens correction only displays me a few lenses. I found out that it only displays the lenses for the camera brand "Pentax Corporation" and not for "Pentax" in the raw converter. In "Filters->Lens Correction" I can change it. Is it possible to manually change to the other data set? I have Photoshop CS5.
    Thanks for the help

    The camera is a Pentax *ist DS. In Camera Raw drop down only PENTAX appears with only the standard lense 18-55 mm. When opening pictures in Photoshop and going to Filter->Lens Correction, there is the choize between camera model "Pentax Corporation" with only that standard lense and then there is "Pentax" with a much more complete collection of lenses.
    If I download additional profiles they appear in Filter->Lens Correction but not in the initial Camera Raw.
    There is no change between jpg and raw pictures.
    How can I tell Camera Raw to take all that lenses? Is there a path set wrong? Maybe the two "libraries" can be combined.
    Thank you

  • LR4 lens correction profiles for micro 4/3s lenses?

    Hi,
    Recently bought into the m43s system because of the compact fast primes (Lumix G 20 1.7 and Olympus 24 1.8) and it looks like there are no "built-in" lens profiles for either in LR4 when I check "enable lens corrections".  I thought I read somewhere that the 20 1.7 requires correction as it has a significant amount of (barrel, iirc) distortion if not corrected, yet the RAW images look fine upon import -- is Lightroom doing something that does not require a profile?  Am I missing something else?
    Thanks!

    they are build in. no need for lens profiles.
    panasonic and olympus lenses for m43 provide lens correction data, raw files contain the parameters needed for raw conversion software, that´s part of the system design.

  • Where do I find Lens Correction filters for old lenses - like the Pentax 28mm shift?

    Using different lenses for photographing buildings, I found that the lens correction filter options in Photoshop CS6 work GREAT. Simply brilliant for the the Sigma  EX 10-20mm 4.5-5.6 wide angle zoom.
    But where would I find af filter for corretcing my old SMC Pentax Shift 1:3.5 28 lens? And - if I find it - how will I install it in photoshop CS6?

    You can download and install the Adobe Lens Profile Downloader and it looks like two downloadable profiles are available.

  • LR4 Beta...another problem with using Lens Correction

    Not sure if it's me or the beta. I'm trying to do a lens correction on a file that was edited in CS5. The photos were taken in 2009/10. They are importing as Process 2012.
    I'm using the Lens Correction in manual. About 15 seconds after I start using the sliders, my LR stops working and I have to close the program (white outs the screen with the note saying the program has to be closed).
    I do know there can be problems with a beat so I wanted to post this problem in case it is a bug in the system.

    I have the same probem if I try to push the scale slider down below about 87%.  It is quite annoying when it keeps happening on the same photo. It's not something I use a lot but it can be necessary with tall buildings when the correction pushes the top out of the frame.

  • LR4 lens correction. When will canon 10-18mm lens be added

    I recently purchased a canon 10-18mm lens. But when I tried to use the lens correction facility I discovered that it was not on the dropdown list of lenses.
    Do you know a date when it will be added?

    I have a similar Windows version so I can give you specific instructions.  This is how to copy the lens profile for the 10-18 from the Adobe PS location to the Users location so an older LR can see it.
    Download and install the DNG Converter 8.7 from:  http://www.adobe.com/downloads/updates/   This will put the new profiles at a known location.
    Find the profile you want to copy under C:\ProgramData\Adobe\CameraRaw\LensProfiles\1.0\Canon and right-click Copy
    I think the file you want is:  Canon EOS 50D (Canon EF-S 10-18mm f4.5-5.6 IS STM) - RAW.lcp
    Go to the Users profile location:  C:\Users\Steve\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\CameraRaw\LensProfiles\1.0\Downloaded
    You may need to create some of the folder path, but down through Roaming should exist.  The AppData folder is hidden so you may have to type it into Explorer and hit Enter to get down into it, or type %AppData% into an Explorer address bar and hit Enter and you should be down into the Roaming folder.
    Once you are in the Downloaded folder (that you may have had to create) do a Paste to copy the profile over to it, and you're done, once you've restarted LR so it'll see the new profile.

  • LR 4.3 lens corrections issue (bug?)

    Hello,
    I'm having trouble with LR 4.3 lens corrections panel, that I didn't have with LR 4.2.
    I'm running LR 64bit  on Windows 7 Ultimate. Camera is Pentax K5.
    This is what the lens corrections panel looks like after import in LR 4.2. I did setup the "Enable Profile Corrections" as default for my camera, so everytime I import photo's this is autmatically checked.
    Opening the same photo in the same catalog with LR 4.3 this is what I get:
    Notice "Setup" has changed to "Custom" and Lens Profile says None.
    Changing Setup to Default again, Make and Model display the correct information, but Profile says None.
    Clicking on the Profile arrows gives me the correct lens profile but...
    ... selecting that profile turns everything back off and setup is changed to Custom again.
    Now setting Setup to Default makes no difference! Lens Profile displays None but...
    ... selecting Auto gives me the right Make and Model!!
    And finally, when I leave the image with settings as here above, go the another photo and change the lens corrections, and then go back to the initial image, everything's gone again!!!
    As far as I'm concerned, this is a serious bug, unless I'm missing something obvious.
    Did anyone have this same problem?
    I've downgraded to LR 4.2 again, and everything is back to normal.
    Regards,
    Peter

    No, that's not it either. Lens Corrections appears in the right panel, between "Detail" and "Effects".
    It's just that when I click on the "make" under the Lens profile, all I get is Nikon and Sony (and not the other brands I used to see) and under model there is only one lens if I remember correctly...
    This is frustrating, and it will be more so if it turns out that I did something silly!!
    thanks

  • Lightroom - Lens Correction - Lens Manufactuer unknown

    I have a Canon Rebel XTi and shoot in Raw. I have 3 Tamron lenses - a 10-24, 17-50 and 18-270.
    I thought I'd try out the lens correction profile for my 10-24 for a few pics, but when invoking the option, it was unable to determine the len manufacturer. Though as soon as I selected 'Tamron' it then knew which lens I was using.
    Should my metadata have capture the lens manufactuer?
    Is there something I am missing?
    Given they are all Tamron - can I set some sort of default so I don't have to select Tamron for every picture?
    Thanks!

    If you cannot get the right lens profile assigned using the Set Default method described in earlier posts (for example, if two different lenses that you use are identified exactly the same by LR's reading of the image metadata, so that it cannot distinguish them automatically) then it can be helpful to record the manual assignment of a given lens profile, into a Develop preset for easier application to images in the future.
    To reiterate, it is enough that Lr's lens detection operates as a unique identifier, that can cause the particular correction profile to be used which you have stipulated; the actual lens description does not strictly need to be correct for the lens, in order for this to happen automatically, per image, at import or subsequently.
    So a general Develop preset or default which turns on lens corrections just needs to activate the profile checkbox, and in the Profile: selector, show "Default". Then LR uses whatever it has been told is the right default for each Lens ID encountered, which may derive from its originally installed list, or else from what the user has later assigned.
    A specific preset applying a particular lens profile for cases where auto detection doesn't work, will instead apply this explicitly, set as "Manual".
    For example, I use some older, pre-digital Pentax lenses which have no ID chip, and report to LR as just "A series lens" or else "K or M lens" - because all the camera can do, is detect whether or not these older lenses have an auto aperture. So with those, I can use LR to filter them down by focal length (prime lenses), to help me rapidly apply a Develop preset which picks out the correct profile for each individual lens. The camera asks me for the focal length whenver it detects a legacy-mount lens has been fitted, so that it can correctly apply shake reduction, so that info is at least recorded against each image. But: most of the time, I use only one A series lens and only one M series lens, so I have LR set to "presume" the A/28 profile for the former, and the M/135 profile for the latter, unless told otherwise. I only have to intervene as described in the exceptional case, when I know I have used some other lens sharing the same class of legacy mount.
    The same principles apply when third-party lens makers use ambiguous Lens IDs even for modern chipped lenses, where these codes may span across multiple, different lens models indiscriminately.

  • Lens correction profile for the Canon 18-135 STM lens in Lightroom 5 ?

    How or where can I get the lens correction profile for the Canon 18-135 STM lens in Lightroom 5 ? In effect he is not available in my list of correction lens so my lightroom is up to date apparently :/
    Thanks in advance for answer.

    There are two types of Lens profiles - raw and JPEG. It looks like you are trying to process a JPEG image and Adobe has only provided a raw lens profile for the 18-135mm IS STM lens.
    You have four options:
    1) Check for available lens profile using the Adobe Lens Profile Downloader. I checked and a JPEG lens profile is NOT available for the 18-135mm lens.
    2) Follow the procedure outlined by Steve Sprengel in this post:
    http://feedback.photoshop.com/photoshop_family/topics/lr_5_lens_profile_not_applied_for_jp g_captures_only_for_raw_captures
    More detailed instructions here for a Pentax lens example:
    http://www.pentaxforums.com/forums/post-processing-articles/176761-creating-adobe-lens-cor rection-profiles-jpgs-raw-ones.html
    This allows using the available raw lens profile with JPEG images. To my knowledge Canon DSLR cameras do not apply distortion correction to JPEG images, so the raw profile should work well. You can check this by shooting raw+JPEG and comparing the two images inside LR
    3) Create you own lens profile using the Adobe Lens Profile Creator. (A complicated process, but it can be done!).
    4) Start shooting in raw mode or raw + JPEG mode, which will allow you to extract the most benefit from LR's processing controls.

  • Accuracy of Lens Correction in LR3 or 4

    Hi! I recently bought my Fuji X10 und downloaded LR4 (beta). Im quite new to LR & RAW, but learning fast.
    Since there is no LCP for the X10 available yet, I'm doing lens correction manually. But the manual correction is quite limited, especially for the 28mm wide angle distortion of the X10.
    My efforts result in almost perfect horizontal & vertical lines in the center, but especially the horizontal lines spread towards the edge.
    http://dl.dropbox.com/u/4978642/Bildschirmfoto%202012-01-21%20um%2014.37.01.png
    Now I would like to know, if a later available LCP would correct this further and straighten all lines? Hoping not to need Photoshop to do the job.
    THX for any comments.

    Manual lens correction model is limited and only account for lower order distortion terms. The distortion used in the LCP is more powerful and can account for higher order distortion terms. You can build your own custom lens profiles using the Adobe Lens Profile Creator http://labs.adobe.com/downloads/lensprofile_creator.html. Or see if others have built and shared the same lens profile using the Adobe Lens Profile Downloader.
