Adobe labs camera profiles

I downloaded camera profiles from Labs.adobe.com . It showed up in CS3 but not in Lightroom 2.0.
How do I get it to show in Lightroom 2.0. ?

Eric,
Has/will the LR team considered:
1. Adding a camera calibration profile drop-down list option in the Quick Develop Panel in the Library, in between the White Balance and Tone Control panes? I was given a tip to make a preset for each profile, which works really nicely in the Develop Module. However, the option of accessing them through the saved preset drop-down list in the Library Module is cumbersome when you have as many presets that I have (over a hundred and counting).
2. Moving the Camera Calibration panel between the White Balance and Tone Control panes in the Develop Module? It seems that it is better to apply the camera profile settings before working on tone settings.
3. Updating the r-click and saved preset menus to include something along the lines of Presets>Preset Folders>Preset List? As mentioned earlier, I have over a hundred presets. When you have more than forty-two, you have to scroll up and down the list to find the preset you want to apply. It would be really nice if you opened the list, hovered over the word presets in the menu list, hovered over the folder that would contain the preset you want, then choose the preset.
BTW, a tip of the hat to the LR team. LR2 is something to be proud of. Thanks for making it available.
Regards, JML

Adobe Beta Camera Profiles

Sorry to ask such a stupid question, but how do you use/apply the profiles?
I know they are selected in the camera calibration tab, but are they camera specific? What is the best one to choose for 'normal' use? 'Camera standard'?
Thanks.

I have been really impressed with the camera profiles - in my case the Standard NEF for a D3 - and posted a complimentary message to that effect on the Labs LR beta2 forum under the pseudonym Rockshead.
The revelation that each profile is camera specific raises a particular question about that for the D3. Whilst the conversions at 'normal' ISO ratings are - as I said - stunning; the same cannot be said of those for the very high ISO numbers, available with the D3, compared to the conversion in View/CaptureNX. Applying LR noise reduction - by the bucket load - cerrtainly aids the definition, but has little effect on the colour differences.
I suppose my question is, is this something that we have to live with; or is there hope for the future that this will be able to be sorted using tweaked profiles. Let me hasten to say, I am content to live with it for the relatively few ultra high ISO pictures I deal with. No complaints at all from me on the way Adobe has tackled this problem. Nevertheless, regular use of high ISOs is coming, and so it is a legitimate question.

Strong colour shift when reselecting Adobe Standard camera profile

I'm having this curious problem with Nikon V1 NEFs (raw files) in Lightroom 4 beta.
In the develop module, Adobe Standard is selected as the default camera profile. If I switch to one of the other profiles (for the V1, the options are Camera Landscape, Neutral, Portrait, Standard, and Vivid) and then switch back to Adobe Standard, I get a strong color shift in the blues, which move towards teal. It looks like a white balance shift, but the white balance settings themselves don't change.
I've attached three screenshots, the first showing an untouched file with Adobe Standard selected as the default profile in the develop module, then with the Camera Vivid profile selected, and then with Adobe Standard reselected. Besides changing the profile, there are no edits on this file: all I've done is import it, put it in a collection, switch to the develop module, select the Camera Vivid profile and then reselect Adobe Standard.
The color shift happens regardless of which camera profile I pick before reslecting Adobe Standard. Interestingly, while the colors are off in the develop module, they're correct in the library module. Switching back and forth between library and develop doesn't fix the problem -- as long as Adobe Standard has been reselected in develop, the colors are off in that module but correct in library. The only way I've found to clear the color shift is to click reset in develop. Select another camera profile, though, and then reselect Adobe Standard and the problem comes right back.

Yes. This is a bug that has been reported/fixed after the public beta build was made ready. Somehow it did not make it to the final public beta release note. The current workaround is to relaunch LR4 or
a) Copy Settings (check all except Calibration),
b) Reset,
c) Paste Settings.
This will invalidate some internal memory cache that went stale.

Red skin tones esp. with Adobe Standard camera profile

I'm shooting with a 1Dsmk3 in raw. I'm always having to channel mix to get the red
tones out. Even on Landscapes a littel red removal is usually needed. Just curving up in luminosity channel is all that It needs sometimes, but usually a combination of the two.
I'm curious about others experience with this.

Can you post an example image demonstrating the issue?

What is Adobe Standard and the other camera profiles?

OK, so i'm using my Canon 5d mark II, shooting RAW in the Neutral picture style. When I load the photo into Lightroom, at the bottom under Camera Calibration the program shows that by default it has loaded the photograph using the Adobe Standard camera profile. My question is: Is Lightroom taking the end result of the RAW data being shot with the Neutral picture style and loading it into Lightroom where it translates the photograph (RAW + Neutral picture style) using Adobe Standard? Or is Lightroom taking the photograph (RAW + Neutral picture style) and overriding the Neutral picture style setting in my camera and replacing it with another picture style it calls Adobe Standard?
Another and potentially easier to understand way of asking the question would be if I shot two photographs in RAW, one with the Neutral picture style set in my camera and one with the Landscape setting, and then loaded them into Lightroom using Adobe Standard camera profile, would the two photographs look any different?
Sorry, I am new to digital photography and all adobe programs, and would greatly appreciate the help of a veteran.

The photos would look exactly the same. The picture style that your camera is set on makes no difference to the raw image. That picture style is carried in your raw file as just a tag that tells Canon's raw converter how to interpret the data. Adobe doesn't use that information.
It's up to you to choose the profile that meets your artistic desires.

Camera profile Adobe Standard for Canon 7D Mark II

Hi,
I am using the latest LR 5.7.1 with a Canon 7D Mark II.
When using the Adobe Standard camera profile I found the colors to be very muted compared to the Camera Standard or Camera Faithful profiles.
In the past, I used the Adobe Standard profile for all the photos that I took with my old Canon 7D.
The results were always rather similar in color saturation to the Camera standard profile.
But the final results from Adobe Standard were superior to the standard Canon profiles, but this seems to be no longer the case for the 7D Mark II.
Has anyone else also seen this effect ?

Would it really do any good for Adobe to communicate an official release date? If they didn't meet that date then you would just call Adobe a liar. Adobe has users from several different companies waiting for support. And whether you believe it or not, there is no providing of specs from camera makers. They don't care whether Adobe Camera Raw supports the camera. Adobe is just another company to them. Adobe has to purchase each camera and then create the profiles for it. The real solution? Camera makers, agree on a common file format. If you won't do that, then YOU take the blame for this delay that happens about four times every year.
Actually, it would help, Jim. It does not have to be exact... it would help to know "this quarter" or "by the end of the year" or "mid-December". It would help because I could decide whether to find a workaround patch, or switch to a different system.
The camera makers are more than willing to provide that info, but according to a contact at Canon USA, in 2008 Adobe changed the game and decided to be more proprietary with their compatibility, presumably so that people would be required to upgrade their software every year just to be able to use new camera technology. It was Adobe's decision, and they could easily decide to play nice. But it is an unfair characterization to say that the camera makers don't care if Adobe supports their camera. That is just a silly assertion.
It comes down to he said - she said, and the two companies are simply pointing fingers at each other. Neither you nor I know the absolute truth about who is right... I only know that I am dissatisfied with Adobe's lack of communication, and slow response when compared to other companies, larger and smaller.

Lightroom 2.5 Upgrade fails to install Camera Profiles

Having just upgraded from LR 2.4 to LR 3.5 as Administrator, I am unable to select any camera profile except one listed as "Beta" when logged on as a User. The Adobe provided camera profiles that I've come to expect are ALL missing.
It appears that Adobe provided camera profiles have been installed at C;\Documents and Settings\All Users\... and NONE are located at C:\Documents and Settings\UserName\...
Is this expected installation behaviour?
Shouldn't the camera profiles be located at some other location that allows anyone logging on to my computer to see ALL Adobe provided camera profiles?
How do I fix this problem so that ALL that log on can see the Adobe provided camera profiles?
Any assistance in this matter would be greatly appreciated!

The LR installer should install all the profiles for all supported cameras.
Profiles are selectable in Develop module from the camera calibration tab while working with RAW files.
The only profiles that will be displayed will be the ones specific to the camera model for the file selected.
Profiles for other cameras and models will not be displayed.
No profiles are selectable or displayed while working with jpeg, psd or tiff files.

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.

Could´nt find a camera profile for the M9.

I have just bought a Leica M9 but I could not find a camera profile for the M9. In the folder "application support/adobe/camera raw/" there is only a profile for the M8. Do I simply not see the profile or is there none. I am using Lightroom 4.4. and Camerea Raw 7.6. on a Mac.

It isn’t on the list but it produces DNGs with an embedded camera profile so it wouldn’t need any specific support from Adobe, I don’t think, so maybe they didn’t feel the need.
If you download the sample DNGs from KenRockwell, you’ll see an Embedded and an Adobe Standard camera profile, which don’t appear to be different because switching between them produces only the tiniest variation in the histogram. If something equivalent to Adobe Standard is already embedded in the camera’s DNGs that there wouldn’t be any other Camera-this or Camera-that profiles to match, hence only Adobe Standard is supplied.

Installation of camera profiles and x-rite Profiles show up only in a certain folder of a catalogue

Dear all,
I'm working in a Maverics environment on which LR 5 is running. I've tried to install the camera profiles for the Nikon D800 by copying them to the users Library/Applicaton Support/Adobe/CameraRaw/Camera Profiles. After re-starting LR the profiles didn't show up. In a second attempt I tried to impoprt them with the extention manager which didn't work.
The second problem I'm facing is, that I've created camera profiles with x-rite. The profiles show up only in a certain folder in LR in the same catalogue. This means in this certain folder named shootings i can choose the x-rite porfiles. When I go -without leaving the catalogue- to an other folder ie. named sports, I can not see the profiles.
It would be great if somebody has a useful idea
Thank you very much in advance.
Cheers Stefan

See the instruction below for the location where your profiles should be placed. If they are placed in the same folder where Lightroom install package places the profiles created by Adobe they will not be recognized.
Your custom Camera Raw & Lens Profiles should be installed to the User folders…
Lightroom 5 no longer uses the shared ProgramData (Windows) / Application Support (Mac) folders for Camera or Lens Profiles. Instead, it stores the built-in profiles with its program files.
When you create camera or lens profiles, they must be stored in the user locations listed below. If you previously stored custom profiles in other locations, you’ll need to move them to these user folders, otherwise Lightroom won’t be able to find them.
Windows—C: \ Users \ [your username] \ AppData \ Roaming \ Adobe \ CameraRaw \ CameraProfiles \
Mac—Macintosh HD / Users / [your username] / Library / Application Support / Adobe / CameraRaw / CameraProfiles /
For the lens profiles, substitute the LensProfiles folder for the CameraProfiles folder.
The camera and lens profile file extensions are:
.dcpr—camera profile recipe file used for creating/editing a profile in the DNG Profile Editor
.dcp—camera profile
.lcp—lens profile

Apply camera profile

I've imported over 2000 pics into the catalog and I noticed all of them were applied with the Adobe Standard camera profile, is there a way to change this in a single step? It's impossible for me to change the settings one by one. I tried 'copy and paste settings' but it didn't work because camera profile is not included in the copy action.
In addition, how do I set the default camera profile so that future imports will also opened with my camera profile?
Thanks,
ST

It's included under the Camera Calibration section.
You should be able to use Copy/paste or Sync Settings.

Congrats Adobe Labs

Just wanted to say congratulations to Adobe/Adobe Labs for
the Panels...what a great workflow advantage.
I'd be happy as a clam in sand just the way it is because of
the efficiency it gives my process.
Not to look at a gift horse in the mouth however, is there
any way that parts of the commands/actions could be menued (for
lack of a better term)
For instance, my main panel is quite large and contains 6 or
7 major ACTIONS. These are pretty complex, engaing several
photoshop and third party tools. Normally in my action pallette, I
can set this as one total action and decide what subsets I want to
toggle on or off for a particular set of images.
I can't do that with the panels so I broke these down into 6
ACTIONS on the panel.
It would be cool however to be able to select more than one
of these on the panel at a time..say #1 #3 and #4.
perhaps on another set of images I would need to select #1 #2
and #6.
More or less to be able to Batch my processes that are on my
panel as actions or commands.
Secondly....It would be cool if we could invoke the great
Adobe Labs camera calibration presets.
I know I can do this via Lightroom 2 and ACR but often in
processing, we have to deal with JPEGs or TIFFS on a one-off and
would not rather have to import these and then export to PSCS4ext.
Also...they are great failsafe for color balance and color
balance comparison when after processing an image late into the
night we may have gone too far...especially with portraits.
Just some ideas for Labs to consider....and again....great
job on the panels.

I am thrilled with Configurator.
How soon can you also create a Configurator for InDesign and
Illustrator?

Love Lightroom Camera Profiles. Could we get more?

Loving the Camera Profiles for Sony cameras in Lightroom and Adobe Camera Raw. Would it be possible to add them for Sony A900, A850 and A700 in the next Lightroom and ACR updates? Thank you!

Many Sony users have asked why Lightroom and Adobe Camera Raw doesn't read Sony Creative Styles embedded in RAW - thwse camera profiles offer a very nice response to that question.
ACR and LR don't support this capability with any camera model, and it's not likely to be added in the future. What Adobe has done is provide "emulations" of the "Camera" picture styles for some camera makes and models, which can be manually selected and applied. You can do a search here and at Photoshop Family Customer Community for posts on camera picture styles and add your vote, or even add a new request.
The OEM's picture style "recipes" are designed to work specifically with the their raw converter and not ACR/LR. The Adobe Standard camera profile and ACR/LR Develop default settings are designed to make camera raw images look nearly identical regardless of camera make or model (i.e. "Standard").
Brian Smith Photo wrote:
Those are someone's custom profiles which are fine but they are not the Sony Creative Style profiles. The screenshot above shows Lightroom profiles for A7-series cameras.
What I read at that site:
I've photographed, under the direct sunlight, a 24 color GretagMacbeth / X-Rite table, then, after converting the RAW to DNG, I've created the standard color profiles with Adobe DNG Profile Editor. Starting from the standard profile and using as reference the "non standard" Nikon, Canon and Leica's profiles, I've created the creative profiles.
Based on the procedure he used these camera profiles may as good or better than Adobe's. They are both emulations created using the Adobe DNG Profile Editor. I can also tell you that neither profile (Adobe's or his) will perfectly "match" the picture style of an in-camera JPEG or raw file processed with the OEMs raw converter. It may be close....but no cigar! I use a ColorChecker PassPort created profile with all my Canon DSLRs, which I find is a better "starting point" than Adobe Standard–YMMV. I also rarely if ever use the "Camera" profiles, which usually require using different Basic panel settings. The one exception is 'Camera Faithful,' which I sometimes use for revealing fine tonal and color gradations (i.e. flowers).

LR 4 Camera Profiles Limit?

Is there a limit to the number of profiles that can be added to Camera Profiles in LR4? Presently there are 9. I added one via the Library/AppSupport/Adobe/ACR/Camera profiles route where it appears. It does not appear when Camera Profiles are opened in LR4 however. Thanks.

The first post in that thread shows you how to command line it so that it is no longer hidden as well as the [Opt] Go method.
That aside, did you get your profile placed and can LR see it now?

Camera Raw RC 7.4 on Adobe Labs

Fixed Issues
The following issues have been fixed in Camera Raw 7.4 release candidate:
The grayscale visualization associated with Noise Reduction Luminance was visible after mouse release. This occurred when positive Clarity was present.
The command/control + A “select all” keyboard shortcut did not select all photos.
Modifying the brush size using the Right-click + Drag method did not increase or decrease the brush size by the desired amount.
The crop overlay tool resized incorrectly when used in conjunction with the “Constrain to Crop” checkbox in the Lens Correction panel.
Hovering the mouse over a local adjustment pin would turn off the desired mask.
Horizontal artifacts occasionally appeared in DNG files.
Improved interactive performance at intermediate zoom levels (e.g., 33% and 66%)

Sorry this was my mistake. Yes, we meant to say Nikon 1 J3. And the Leica model that is newly supported in 7.4 RC and 4.4 RC is the Leica M (Typ 240).
The M Monochrom has been supported since ACR 7.1 and LR 4.1 (last year).
