Camera profiles bug

Some camera profiles not appear in the version 4.4., and ACR 7.4
folder of camera profiles
I see this in LR 4.4 and ACR 7.4
And this whith LR5
I had made me with ColorChecker Passport. Anyone know where it is due. You can fix-it?
If  I open one camer profile made in 4.4 with "texedit" I see this:
IIRC   ∆
b!∆
and if I open all the camera profile made with 4.3 i look this:
IIRC   ∆  b!∆
What has changed in the plugin developer?

There was a change to the behavior of LR4.4 and ACR 7.4 to look for camera profiles only in the user level location not the root level. What OS are you on?

  • Odd Camera Profile / Undo Bug in 2.3 RC

    I downloaded the LR 2.3RC tonight and although it seems to be running faster, I've noticed a strange bug that I've never noticed before (or that wasn't there before.
    When using develop presets that change the camera profile (for example Matt Kloskowski's 300 Look) the preset will be applied and then after that the camera profile is changed as a separate step in the History palette (however I have only clicked on the preset and haven't changed the camera profile).
    When clicking undo the overlay that tells me what step I am undoing says that it is "Undo Camera Profile: ACR 4.4" - however this step either (1) gets undone and immediately re-applied, or (2) never gets undone. This problem makes it impossible (without using the History palette) to revert to the step before - and it kind of makes it difficult to apply several presets to see which works best as I have to scroll to the History palette to undo it and apply another.
    This bug only exhibits itself when using presets which change the camera profile.
    Anyone else seeing this?
    Any work arounds (other than reverting to 2.2)?
    Thanks,
    Chris

    Hey Chris,
    Yes I can reproduce this same exact problem on my Macbook Pro (Feb. 2008) with 4GB RAM and 10.5.6 with Lightroom 2.3RC
    I tried this on Lightroom 2.2 and I can say that this problem does not happen. This is a Lightroom 2.3RC bug.
    Is there a place where we are suppose to report RC bugs or is this post enough? Thoughts Adobe?

  • D810 RAW conversion in LR 5.6 shows posterization at certain camera profiles: Camera Standard, vivid, monochrome that it does not show with identical photos from a D800. Is this bug already known?

    Never had this problem seen before in all my years of LR use. I use a test-chart with a continuous gray bar (from dark to light). Normally use Camera Standard profile to develop all my D800 RAW files with no problem so far. Got a D810 to test this week and did some tests using the same target. Suddenly there are some ugly posterization effects in the gray bar to be seen that can only be eliminated with heavy color-noise reduction or by switching to any other profile but Camera standard, Camera Vivid, Camera monochome.
    The following 100% crop shows the effect from a D810:
    And this is the same crop from a D800-shot:

    OK, after posting there was the right suggestion of other forum threads that took care of the issue:
    Nikon D810 & Lightroom 5.6 posterization issue with Camera Profiles
    So this thread can be closed.

  • 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.

  • Camera profiles and Highlight Recovery: color shifts

    I often see significant hue shifts and loss of saturation when using the Recovery slider in conjunction with the new dng camera profiles. I don't remember to ever have this 'problem' with legacy ACR profiles. In the sample below, you can see just that:
    Sample: http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3224/2918603614_7a562db832_o.png
    This becomes a bit of a problem, as recovering highlights now brings color shifts as a side-effect and you have to go fiddling with color controls.
    Often, the new, 'shifted' colors are even more pleasing than the 'unshifted' (i.e. recovery set to zero), but this is a psychological and a workflow problem too. It is just not nice to know that controls are interdependent and have side-effects.
    Is it a bug or a fact of life? What's so different about the old a new profiles, that cause this difference in recovery effect?
    The DNG to play: http://www.yousendit.com/download/bVlBblFOR0Y3N0JFQlE9PQ

    Eric, thanks a lot for the explanation and technical details.
    Knowing this helps me a bit, as it confirms my observations. What is not clear, is how these shifts will/should (or would they?) be addressed?
    I mean Recovery was a perfect control until now. it just did what is should, reliably and consistently. Now we have the side-effect of color shifts.
    a) Will Adobe adjust the algorithm to fit the new profile system? A bad thing, because it will not assure backward compatibility.
    b) Will Adobe add a new control? Worse, because it adds unnecessary complexity.
    c) Will/could the profiles be modified in a way as these color shift don't happen. As I understand from your previous post, this doesn't seem possible.
    d) Will it just be left as is and I'll have to live with the color shifts? Now it seems it's the most likely option. Sad, because Recovery used to be so powerful, and now its power is somewhat compromised.

  • 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.

  • Thinking behind 'beta' as in Camera Profiles

    It would be interesting to hear some guidance on the Beta part of the new Camera Profiles title. Particularly as there is now word of a Beta 2.
    It is hardly a scientific survey, but from what I have seen on this and the ACR forum, I would have said that since their introduction there has been nary a word said against them. And certainly little in the way of suggested improvements. The response from users appears to be wholly positive. But then again there has never been a forum dedicated to feedback.
    Are there folk in the background providing constructive feedback which will be implemented into improvements to those that already exist? And will those improvements be in Beta 2? Or will this retain the existing profiles and only add additional ones for newly introduced cameras? And if the former, will there be further improvements added to further Beta numbers; or is the plan at some stage to finalise the existing profiles as a firm release?
    There are after all, I would surmise, many thousands of images already treated to the existing excellent profiles. It would be great to know a little of what the future holds.

    Hi everyone,
    Our basic plan at this time is to release a "beta 2" set of profiles which will include support for new cameras well as fix some known issues with the existing ones. There will also be a "beta 2" of the DNG Profile Editor, which is essentially a bug fix update.
    As with the beta 1 profiles, there will be an installer so you don't have to worry about where to stick the new profiles. The installer won't delete or replace the existing beta 1 profiles, nor will it overwrite any custom profiles you may have built using DNG Profile Editor. So you don't have to worry about the color rendering for existing images (which use the 'beta 1' profiles) changing their appearance behind your back.
    Both are free and will be released to the public very soon. See Thomas's notes in his description of Camera Raw updates in a recent thread in the Camera Raw forum if you want a closer guess on what "soon" means.
    There are more details, but I think this is enough for now. Ultimately I will attempt to update the DNG Profiles FAQ with more info, but I haven't yet figured out how to squeeze 25 hours into a day!

  • Custom DNG camera profiles only available for DNG files?

    I developed a custom camera profile for my Sigma DP-1, using a colorchecker chart and the DNG profile editor.
    I exported the DNG profile in the default location.
    When I open Lightroom or ACR, the new profile is not available for X3F files, only DNG files. Is this normal???

    Well, I've imported the original X3F file as well as the converted DNG file in Lightroom.
    When I develop the DNG file, my custom profile appears in the list. When I click on the X3F file, embedded*  is the only option.
    It may have to do with an incomplete support of the X3F format. I have just repeated the exercise for my D300, and in this case the custom profile is available for NEF files.
    Too bad since I'm happy with some of the Adobe camera profiles for the D300, but less so with the default look for Sigma DP-1 files.
    I guess I should file a bug report...
    * or "matrix" or whatever is the term in the english version, I have the french version which says "incorporé"

  • How to make an untwisted camera profile available in LR 4.4?

    I have downloaded dcpTool from http://dcptool.sourceforge.net and generated the untwisted versions of all the Nikon D700 related camera profiles (Adobe Standard, Camera Standard, etc.) that come with LR 4.4. Since the structure of the camera profile filenames seem to be important, for each file I kept the original name but added a distinction to its end (e.g. Nikon D700 Camera Standard UT.dcp).
    According to the information I have collected, 'installation' of these profile versions would be as easy as copying them into the same directories where the original profiles are. Unfortunately LR 4.4 does not bring them up in the Camera Calibration module.
    How should I 'install' these profiles?

    Thanks again for your very useful advice. You gently explain why my idea is groundless. You are right, it is better to stay on ground.
    I changed to LR recently. So far I have used only the Adobe Standard profile, but I am not very pleased with it. A few days ago I started fiddling with other D700 profiles, without any convincing color rendering improvement. This is the reason for entering the camera profiling world.
    As my username reflects, I am a hobbyshooter. Most of my pictures are taken when travelling (landscapes and cityscapes) but I also shoot at family events and parties.
    You have made me even more curious about the ColorChacker based profiles. I hope they will solve my main problems: skin color, the vivid reds of Nikon, and the formerly mentioned hue twist. Nevertheless, I am afraid that finding the right color rendering balance for my typical environments (particularly for indors with totally mixed lighting) will not be easy...
    I am also thinking of reprocessing roughly two thousand pictures, taken years ago with D200 and D300. Do you have any suggestion how to get nice 'generic' profiles for the given camera+lens combos, which I do not have these days, so creating their profiles with ColorChecker is out of the question for me?

  • I would like to add a new Canon camera profile to the RAW interface

    Hi,  I would like to add a new Canon camera profile to the RAW interface.
    I have recently installed the new camera profile 'Studio Portrait' which i download from here:
    http://www.canon.co.jp/imaging/picturestyle/file/studio-portrait.html
    When I open up a RAW files in Camera RAW, go to 'Camera Calibration', click on the drop down list called
    'Camera Profile'  I only see  'Adobe Standard, Faithful etc etc'.
    My questions are, can i add the same camera profile i put in my camera, into a folder with in photoshop?
    Or is photoshop reading the raw file and only seeing the default camera profiles?
    If I could see the new camera profile listed it would help with work flow.
    Best
    JL-B
    Please help, ive not had a good time waiting on the phone and trying to explain this to a live chat, hours have been wasted. Once i know the answer I can get back to the commission.

    Are you following this
    Apply a camera profile
    To apply a camera profile, select it from the Camera Profile pop-up menu in the Camera Calibration tab of the Camera Raw dialog box. The Adobe Standard profile for a camera is named Adobe Standard. Camera Matching profiles include the prefix Camera in the profile name. The Camera Profile pop-up menu displays only profiles for your camera.
    If the only profile in the Camera Profilemenu is Embedded, it means that you have selected a TIFF or JPEG image. Adobe Standard and Camera Matching profiles work only with raw images.
    Note:  If you have selected a raw file and Adobe Standardand Camera Matching profiles do not appear in the Camera Profilepop-up menu, download the latest Camera Raw update. 

  • How do I install a camera profile into CS2 raw converter

    I recently purchased a ColorChecker Passport and along with the software, created a camera profile for my Olympus E-300. The CCP software crated a camera profile that was duly placed into the c:\users\<username>\AppData\Roaming\adobe\cameraraw\cameraprofile\olumpus e-300 Directory. When I open an olympus ORF raw file from cs2 or bridge, and select the calibrate tab the only thing that is available in the camera calibrate box is ACR 2.4. Clicking the drop down arrow doesn't show anything else.
    I have turned off colormanagement in photoshop.
    Can anybody tell me how I can get photo shop to recognize the new camera profile?
    I have tried restarting photoshop and Bridge after the DCp file was added to teh directory.
    ACR verssion 3.7(?)
    OS is windows home 64
    8 gigs of ram
    Photoshop cs2 version 9.0.1
    adobe bridge cs2 version 1.0.4.6
    I have also performed the same tasks on photoshop cs3 on my work computer with the same results.

    The earliest version of Camera Raw to use DNG Profiles was version 4.6 in Photoshop CS3...so, you won't be able to use that DNG profile in ACR 3.7.

  • Camera Profiles and PS Elements

    I'm a happy camper with LightRoom and the new profiles :-)
    A friend of mine have just bought a Nikon D60 and PSE. He is not ready
    start using a RAW convert yet but I'm sure he want to do that later. That's way I advice him to shoot RAW from the start so he can edit this picture later when he is ready.
    Can he use the new camera profiles with PSE? Is it possible to choose lets say Camera Standard as a default when he open raw pictures?

    Excellent Thomas. How do you select another profile then Adobe Standard in PSE?
    Ramõn: Even if my friend have less option in PSE I feel it's better to start shooting raw. Then he later can buy LR or PS CS and reedit pictures taken to day.

  • What does "Camera Profile" mean in the Camera Calibration tab in PSE 12?

    I recently made the switch to edit exclusively in Photoshop Elements 12. I need help understanding what I need to select for the "Camera Profile" drop down in the Camera Calibration tab. I shoot with a Canon Mark II. Will the camera profile selection affect my prints at all? First, what does the camera profile mean? I go back and forth between Adobe Standard and Camera Standard. Sometimes I get truer color with Camera Standard than the Adobe Standard for my outside photos. I'm so confused as to which one I should be editing with. I just want to be sure this is not going to affect my prints because I just recently ordered a print from Millers and it was saturated, shadowing and skin had orange tone. I have never had a problem with my calibration and have always ordered from Millers with no problem. This is the first print I ordered after editing exclusively with PSE 12 so I'm wondering if I have setting wrong. Thanks so much!

    Will the camera profile selection affect my prints at all?
    It will affect prints to the same extent that it affects the monitor display, but no more than that. The differences that you see in color rendering when switching between profiles will be embodied in the jpg that you eventually make for sending to the print lab, but will not in itself cause the discrepancies you describe.

  • 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.
