Adding lens correction profiles to Photoshop

I am having difficulty adding lens correction profiles for my Sony A7R camera to Photoshop and LIghtroom. I have obtained some *.lcp files for a given lens in RAW, and have tried adding them to to the following folders but without success (i.e., the lens profile still does not appear):
Program Files/Adobe/Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 5.4/Resources/LensProfiles/1.0/Sony
Program Files/Adobe/Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 5.4/Resources/LensProfiles/1.0/Sony/Downloaded
ProgramData/Adobe/CameraRaw/LensProfiles/1.0/Sony
ProgramData/Adobe/CameraRaw/LensProfiles/1.0/Sony/Downloaded
Users/MyName/AppData/Roaming/Adobe/CameraRaw/LensProfiles/1.0
Users/MyName/AppData/Roaming/Adobe/CameraRaw/LensProfiles/1.0/Downloaded
The reason I've added the *.lcp file to so many folders is because various internet searches have suggested each one of these as a repository for the *.lcp file.
I'm now thinking that the Index.dat file in the LensProfiles folder may need rebuilding, and supposedly renaming that folder and restarting either PS or LR will recreate that file. However, that has not worked for me, and what happens is that I get an extremely abbreviated list of available profiles. What is the current, proper way to add lens profiles to Photoshop CS6, CC or LightRoom 5.4, all being 64 bit versions running on a PC under Windows 7 64 Bit?

User lens profiles in program folders will be ignored, so the first four you list, starting with Program Files and ProgramData are only for Adobe-supplied profiles for the particular version of product you're using.  There are .lcp files in those program folders, the ones without Downloaded in the path, anyway, but they have to be Adobe profiles.  Each version of Camera Raw and Lightroom knows exactly what profiles to expect and will ignore any others.  A few years ago that was not the case, but it is, now.
The last path, beginning with Users and ending with Downloaded is where user-supplied .lcp files should go.
If you want to zip up a profile and a raw file you feel goes with it, and upload to http://www.dropbox.com and share a public download link, here, then maybe others can verify if those profiles work for them or not.

  • Adobe Camera Raw - lens correction profiles not found

    I use Photoshop CC as part of the photography program of Creative Cloud. My platform is a Mac Book Pro (2013) with the latest Mac OS-X operating system. I have also installed Bridge CC and Lightroom 5.
    Since about three weeks (maybe after an update but I'm not sure on that) Adobe Camera Raw's lens correction feature fails permanently. With older pictures (taken long before the error occured for the first time) as well as with new photos and with dng files as well as with cr2 files the ACR dialog always shows the error message (lens correction profile can't be found - since I have the German version of Photoshop this is how I would translate the error message). I didn't install or uninstall any programs, plugins etc. around the time of the first occurance of the error.
    I already uninstalled Photoshop CC completely (using the uninstall function in the programs folder) and reinstalled it via Creative Cloud but it still shows the same error.
    What can I do?

    Hello, you can make sure the latest version is installed by going to help-updates.
    Also, make sure that you are running the latest version of the creative cloud application, as it fixes a permission problem that might cause the issue you are facing. Just go to the creative cloud application on your menu bar, and restart it.

  • Lens Correction Profiles: Pasting develop settings in bridge yields inconsistent crop

    Hello Everyone,
    I recently discovered lens correction profiles which have been a real benefit to me in my most recent batch of images shot at 16mm on a Canon 5d MII. The lens distortion isn't always spot on, but it is a huge headstart most of the time.
    I bracket photos for HDR and will apply all my crop settings to one image in the bracketed series and afterwards psate the settings onto all the others in the series. This works great.
    However, once I started using Lens Correction Profiles, when I paste the crop setting onto the subsequent images, the crop is in a different position. I was completely baffled. But after some fiddling around, I noticed that if I manually open each of the subsequent images, remove the crop, uncheck and recheck the Lens Correction Profile, and reapply the crop, it is consistent with the first. This leads me to believe that somewhere in the Paste Setting sequence, it is doing the crop out of order. (As if it is cropping the image and THEN applying the lens correction--which yeild different results.)
    (As a item of note, when I mean cropping, I use the automatic crop obtained by highlighting the entire area of the image after applying lens corrections so as to only crop out the grey areas acquired by shifting the image around while still maintaining aspect ratio.)
    Is there any way we can get the pasting to paste so as to make these subsequent images identical to the original image? Or am I missing something?
    Relevant Specs:
    OS: Windows 7 Professional 64-bit
    Bridge 4.0.4.2
    Adobe Camera Raw 6.4.0.139
    Photoshop 12.0.3 x64
    Thanks,
    Dave

    Normally, when you apply a lens correction profile, there shouldn't be any visible gray areas around the border of the image.
    Are you saying this is not the case?
    Are you making additional distortion or keystoning adjustments (e.g., in the manual tab)?

  • 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.

  • Where can I find lens correction profiles for EF 17-35 f/2.8L lens using ACR 6.2?

    Using Photoshop CS5 Extended on iMac 10.6.4.
    I'm  working with wedding photos shot by a friend but I cannot find lens  correction profiles for Canon EOS 20D or the EF 17-35 f/2.8L lens. When I  search online it simply says "No online profiles found". Is there a  download for older lens profiles? I checked & I'm using ACR 6.2. I don't have the camera so there's no  way to take test photos to create my own profile. But, shouldn't there  be a profile available; the camera isn't that old?

    Go to DXO Pro and download the 30 day trial. It works very well for lens/body correction, and unlike Adobe, DXO maintains data on the older cameras and lenses. Updates will always have those available. Adobe is a latecomer to this part of the correction process, so as Ian said, no call, no supplier? Out of luck.
    http://www.dxo.com/intl/photo
    It's fair to note that DXO does not necessarily have a complete line of everything, like my Tamron 28 to 75 isn't available as a module. They do pay attention to demands, or lack therof,  that are not mainstream as well. But their offerings are excellent, and the tests, professional.

  • Is it possible to use automatic lens correction profiles in Camera RAW using Extendscript?

    I have developed Javascripts using Extendscript toolkit to help me process batches of files for creating time lapse videos, and
    I would like to take advantage of the automatic lens correction profiles available in Adobe Camera RAW (I am using Adobe Photoshop CS6 64-bit), but in the CameraRAWOpenOptions, there is no property describing the automatic lens correction profiles.  It seems there has got to be a way to automate the selection of the "Enable Lens Profile Corrections" box when opening camera RAW images.  I am using Canon lenses, and the Adobe lens correction profiles work great, so I'd like to use them.
    I am aware of the other way of doing this in Photoshop using File-->Automate-->Lens Correction, but this seems to work more slowly than using the lens corrections in Camera RAW.
    Thanks.

    You don't need to bother...just set your Camera Raw "Defaults" to include Enable Lens Profile Corrections and check the Auto CA correction. Then go to the ACR flyout menu and select Save New Camera Raw Defaults...Note: if you have your ACR preferences set to have seperate defaults based on camera serial number and ISO, you'll need to save out seperate defaults for each camera and ISO you use.

  • CR 8.2 doesn't come up with lens correction profile on Canon 6d with EF 24-105 L 4.0 IS/USM

    Dear community members,
    Some weeks ago I bought my new Canon EOS 6D with a EF 24-105 L f/4.0 IS/USM lens an I am absolutely happy with them :-)
    The only problem that I run in to is when I process my photographs in Camera Raw. The thing is that CR does not come up with a lens correction profile for de Canon 6D with the lens mentioned above.
    I do find a profile of the 1D Mark III, but this one does not work very well on the RAWs from the Canon 6D.
    Does any one know if and (when yes) where I can find the right profile for lens correction? At the Adobe site I could not find the profile van this camera in combination with this objective.
    Or perhaps there is another way to apply automatic lens corrections on RAW;s from the Canon 6D with a EF 24-105?
    Kind regards and many thanks in advance for your answers :-)

    Hello,
    Thanks for your advice.
    I did download the DNG Coverter but it did not help. So I decided to uninstall Photoshop CS6 and reinstall it again on my Mac.
    For uninstall I followed the following steps:
    -go to finder
    -go to the Photoshop CS6 map
    -dubbel click on the Adobe-uninstall icon
    This worked perfectly well without any errors.
    Now I am running into another problem, a problem with reinstalling PS CS6.
    I don't have a cd-rom with PS on it, but I have a downloaded a .DMG file which I bought and downloaded from Adobe (I don't have a CD-player in my Mac). This should not be any problem. But what happens is this:
    When I dubbel-click the .DMG-file (Photoshop_13_LS16.dmg) the normal installation window appears.
    After dubbel-clicking Photshop CS6 icon the following screen appears:
    After selecting the Install icon the following screen appears:
    The error message is in Dutch and says: 'install' excists on the diskcopy 'Photoshop_13_LS16.dmg'. Safari downloaded this diskcopy on 2 July 2013
    The two buttons say: " Cancel" and "Delete diskcopy file"
    When I select "Cancel" the application stops and when I select "Delete diskcopy file" it removes the Install-file (from screenshot) and the application stops.
    Could you please tell me what I am doing wrong?
    Thanks in advance!
    Kind regards,

  • Lens correction profiles LR3.4 Mac

    I use a mac.
    I shoot raw.
    I created lens correction profiles for my camera and a few lenses.  I uploaded them to Adobe.  The lens corrections show up in Adobe Camera Raw  but not in Lightroom.  ACR "looks" for the .lcp files in the Library/Application Support/Adobe/Camera Raw/Lens Profiles/1.0
    Where does Lightroom look for the .lcp files?  Or does it use them a all?  There is a large list of supported lenses in the dropdown menu, just not the ones I created.

    QUOTING:   There is a second Lens Profiles Default folder as well.
    Where is this elusive second folder?  I put copies of the profile in the /Downloaded folder as wel, but Lightroom still doesn't see them.

  • How to apply lens correction profile to multiple images at once?

    I have a quick newbie question and I couldn't find an answer in a brief search that I did. Is it possible to apply lens correction profile automatically to multiple images at once? For my RAW images, LR automatically detects the lens and applies the correction profile for an image if I manually click on "Enable lens correction" option under Develop module (in the right pane where adjustments are made). However, I would like to do this to multiple images all at once.
    Thanks,
    Osho

    Be careful using develop setting synchronization for lens profile across mutiple images! This allows applying an incorrect profile (i.e. Canon 17-40mm profile with synchronization to images shot with multiple lenses) First use the 'filter' tool to make sure you select images shot with only one (1) lens type. Then follow one of the procedures here:
    http://help.adobe.com/en_US/Lightroom/3.0/Using/WS0E6E6886-E223-4050-B6E0-A97B5B62EF7D.htm l
    You can also change the "default" develop settings with 'Lens Profile' option checked and then save as the "new default" setting. LR will then "automatically" apply lens profile correction on import of new images.
