Camera profiles with .tiff files

I have a camera not (really) supported directly by LR - so i use .tiff files created by the camera bundled software.
This works fine, and i have earlier had help from this forum regarding lens-profiles using .tiff files, with great success.
Now i would like to be able to use my own camera profiles with LR with my .tiff files - when i open the RAW files (an old version is supported, so they can be opened) the profiles are availiable as expected, but when i change to the .tiff version of the file, the profiles are gone.
What can i do?
Best regards

In the Camera Calibration tab the only profiles that will be available are for RAW files. Tiff and Jpeg files are already rendered and you will only see "embedded". When you shoot in raw mode applying profiles and adjusting white balance are major benefits in post processing, both are already baked into files rendered by the camera. Or in your case by the camera manufacturers software.
Maybe your camera is supported by a newer version of Lightroom. What version of LR are you using and camera model?

  • "Embedded" camera profile for .dng file?

    Why does Lightroom 5 show "embedded" as an option for camera profile for .dng files created by my pentax k-30?  I thought that "embedded" profiles did not apply to .dng files?

    A JPG can contain color profile data not just a reference tag containing the name, although other Google results indicate that the APP2 segment is only has 65533 bytes of data and if the profile is too large for that then it is either chunked somehow or written into an XMP segment:
    http://docs.oracle.com/javase/6/docs/api/javax/imageio/metadata/doc-files/jpeg_metadata.ht ml#color
    “If the ColorSpace of the image is based on a non-standard ICC Profile, then that profile is embedded in an APP2 marker segment. If the ColorSpace is not based on a non-standard ICC Profile, but an app2ICC node appears in the metadata, then an APP2 marker segment is written with the appropriate standard profile. Note that the profile must specify an RGB color space, as the file must be JFIF compliant.”
    EXIFtool can extract and embed a profile:

    Hello, I think that you search for https://www.adobe.com/cfusion/entitlement/index.cfm?e=labs%5Fdngprofileeditor
    Here is a PDF from adobe about it: http://wwwimages.adobe.com/www.adobe.com/content/dam/Adobe/en/products/photoshop/pdfs/cs6/ DNGProfile_EditorDocumentation.pdf

  • 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.)

  • Camera Profiles with a Nikon D5200

    As from my other threads today, I'm just learning Lightroom and trying to figure things out. 
    I am shooting with a D5200 and am able to import the raw (NEF) files into Lightroom just fine.  I'm thinking that my "Camera Profile" is not being applied to the files correctly because they look really different compared to the JPEG's that are shot.  I've tried to go into the "Developer" section and change the "Camera Profile" around from something other than Adobe Standard, but the colors still don't look right.
    How do I know which Camera Profile is being applied to the raw photos if the only thing that Lightroom shows is a generic "Adobe Standard", "Camera Standard", Vivid, etc.
    Thanks!

    Just to be clear, Lightroom does NOT choose ANY profile for raw images from ANY camera. YOU have to choose the profile that you want. Lightroom cannot/does not read that information from the file. Lightroom does NOT use the camera model number as criteria for which profile to use. YOU make that choice. If you find that you use one profile more than others, YOU can change your default settings for your camera to use that profile as a starting point. The profiles provided by Adobe are designed to emulate the camera settings. But they are not intended to be something to use for ultimate results. They are a starting point from which you make other adjustments to get the results you are looking for.
    When shooting raw/JPEG the JPEG images may look warmer because they are affected by the in-camera processing. If you find that you consistently need to make your images warmer, make that adjustment along with other adjustments that you want to be standard or automatic, and then make them part of your default settings by saving new default settings.
    The default settings which you determine should provide you with a generally acceptable starting point for most of your images. However, you should expect to make individual adjustments as required to get the results you are looking for.
    After reading my response I realize I need to make one clarification. Lightroom DOES look at the camera make and model and then allows you to choose from the profiles that were created for that camera. However Lightroom does not choose a profile by itself. While it's true that Adobe Standard is the profile that seems to be the "default" profile, that can be changed to match your shooting style.
    If you decide to set camera defaults, you can make those settings camera serial number-specific, or ISO-specific if that is what you feel you need. So far, I haven't found it necessary to go that far. However, I have created my own set of defaults which includes camera profile, white balance, sharpening and noise reduction settings that I find optimal for my camera.

  • Camera profile with CS2 and DNG

    If I embed a camera profile in a DNG file and open it in ACR for Photoshop CS2, will I have the benefit of the camera profile?

    Thank you. I had seen that FAQ; I was hoping that by embedding the profile in a DNG, I would get around the incompatability.
    Frankly, I don't see what's so special about a profile that they can't get CS2 to support it. Kinda annoying, when combined with the fact that CS2 doesn't support new cameras. It seems that's merely aimed at getting people to upgrade and spend $$$. Even Microsoft supports their legacy products for a few years!

  • Camera Profiles with Older Lightroom Version

    Using an older version (LR 2.7) on an older Mac G5. Would like to download the camera profiles for my Canon cameras (1Ds MK2, G12) from Adobe but can't find them on line. Since this version is old, do compatible profiles still exist? If so, where might I find them?

    You cannot add camera support for newer cameras to an older version of LR by merely downloading profiles.
    You have to either update the LR to a version that is newer than your camera or use the DNG Converter that is new enough to create DNGs from the raw files and then those DNGs have enough information for an older version of LR to support them.  The issue you’d have is that the DNG Converter probably only runs on the newer OS as well, so you’ll have to find another computer to convert the files with.

  • Set Camera Profile with a Preset?

    I am shooting tethered with a Nikon D700 and I want to apply a camera profile (Nikon D700 Landscape) to each image as it is captured. While tethered, I know how to assign a Preset, what I don't know is how to assign a camera profile to a preset? Thoughts?

    You can also fire one shot, then set the profile, then choose 'Same as Previous' from the preset list.

    We had the same issue with corrupted zip files in our portal. (NW2004S EP7 SP10)
    The issue was resolved by doing the following:
    First go into your portal and check the properties of a zip file. Check to see which mime type is associated with your zip file. (normally application/x-zip-compressed) You can see this clearly in the portal when you click details of a zip file then settings, properties and there you have the MIME Type of your zip file.
    My zip file gave the following properties:
    MIME Type:   Compressed archive file (application/x-zip-compressed)
    Log on to your server via the Visual Administrator tool, browse to your Server, Services -> HTTP Provider and edit the NeverCompressed parameter and add your mime type from above to it. CLICK UPDATE & SAVE + restart your server node.
    Logon to your Visual Administrator and check again to see if your modification is still present!
    You can check if your zip file is still compressed or not by opening it in notepad.
    Open both the original zip file and the new one downloaded from your portal to see if the header inside your zip file is equal or not. (use small zip files to test!)
    If both headers (beginning of your zip files) are equal compression is off, else zip files are still compressed.
    A non compressed zip file in notepad should start with:
    PK        ç~P6ÌÇ Z......
    A compressed zip file has something like this:
    ‹          @ê¿PK       
    As you can see the header is different.
    Use fresh test zip files, in other words don't use allready uploaded zip files since they will be most likely allready compressed if you struggle with these problems.
    Please let me know your results,
    Best regards,
    Tom.

  • Can you auto replace eps files with tiff files

    Hello
    We have a document that has been supplied to u with 3000 images in it. The original positional files were eps files but the final high res files will be tiff's. Is there a way to find and replace the eps files with the tiff files?
    Many thanks
    Beefcake3

    Are you using CS3 or CS4?
    With CS3 you might be able to use the LinkOptimizer that you can buy from here http://zevrix.com/linkoptimizer.php
    With CS4 you can swap out a bunch of files for another bunch in another folder - http://indesignsecrets.com/relink-from-one-image-file-type-to-another.php
    Are you sure the EPS are just raster images? If there are any text, vectors etc. they will be converted to raster elements when saving to a tiff.
    Perhaps a PDF would be better if you don't like EPS?

  • Working with .tiff files

    I am a new Lr user and have just imported a medium-format scan (as a .tiff file) into Lightroom. After cropping one image from the .tiff file, processing it and then exporting the image I am unable to retrieve the other 5 images from my .tiff file. I have tried to re-import it, but receive the message that the image is already in Catalogue. The only image that I can see in my Catalogue is the file which was cropped from the .tiff file and has already been processed. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

    In that case you are best to select that image and from the top menu click Photo >> Create Virtual Copy. That will become copy 1 - your cropped version. Now select your original and go to Develop. Click on the history tab in the left hand panel and click on the bottom item in the list which will return you to your imported state. That’s the beauty of Lightroom; it is totally non-destructive and you can go back to any history step and create any number of virtual copies without duplicating the original on your hard drive.
    If you don’t wish to keep a virtual copy of your first crop (because you have exported it) simply go back to import date on your original.

  • Heads-up - Don't Export ICC Profiles With Illustrator Files

    Hello everyone,
    I have a new Motion project (yea!) and I started out creating a 56-point star in Illustrator CS4 with a specific RGB color value and saved it as Illustrator CS4 with PDF compatibility. I brought it into Motion no problem but the RGB value was changed. I futzed with it for a few minutes and figured out that the default save in Illustrator has "Embed ICC Profiles" checked. I unchecked this and saved it again and it came into Motion with the correct RGB values.
    Rock on.

    RGB output profiles only in Lightroom. Use Photoshop.

  • Save image to camera roll with specified file name or get the file name

    I am saving an image to camera roll but don't see an option to save the file using a custom name. Is it possible to do so? or is it possible to get the name of the file saved?

    Ensure you have set the correct capability in your app to save the picture with the exact name you specified.
    You can try the code below to iterate through all pictures in the cameraroll album and find out if the name exists.
    using (var mediaLib = new MediaLibrary())
    var camRollAlbum = mediaLib.RootPictureAlbum.Albums.Where(a=>a.Name == "Camera Roll").FirstOrDefault();
    foreach (var pic in camRollAlbum.Pictures)
    string picName = string.Empty;
    if(pic.Name.Contains("Selfie"))
    picName = pic.Name;
    Let me know if this helps.

  • Bridge CS4 not recognizing tiff files

    I downloaded an update for camera raw and installed in manually and after this I couldn't open Photoshop.  I then uninstalled and reinstalled CS4 and now bridge will show thumbnails of tiff files but won't open large.  All I see is a generic icon.  How do I get bridge to recognize tiff files.  It recognizes jpgs, and raw files.  I'm using Windows Vista.
    Any help appreciated
    Suzan

    All Raw files are reconnized as all jpgs.  I have my Bridge set up as a film strip with smal thumbnails and if I click on one thumbnail it opens large in preview area.  I can click on a Raw thumbnail and it will display a larger view in bridge then I can open in Camera Raw for preliminary editing.  I cannot do this with tiff files.  I can see them as thumbnails but when I click on them bridge doesn't display a larger image (only a small icon) nor am I given the option of opening in Camera Raw.  I can double click and photoshp regular will open or I can go up to file open with and go to photoshop regular but Bridge willnot allow me to view a larger than thumbnail size pic nor will it give me the option of opening in Camera Raw.  My camera raw preferences are set to "open both jpgs and tiff files with settings".
    Thanks Suzan
    I purged the cashe from one file and it affected all files(all almost 500 gigs).  I'd been working on this for hours.  Thank you and God Bless.

  • Black and white conversion of tiff files in pse6

    I like the "convert to black and white" utility in pse, but was disheartened to discover that it doesn't seem to work with tiff files. Also, the "adjust smart fix" and "auto red eye" options are not available with tiff files either. Is there a way around this?

    Geoff the kiwi wrote:
    How does the OP's green/magenta colouring equate to your stated red/cyan?
    Well, it looks cyan to me. Here it is with saturation boost - assuming the OP made the screenshot correctly, assigning the display profile:
    In any case, the Photoshop bug is well known and well documented, showing up as cyan shadow banding in ProPhoto files, when GPU is set to "Normal" or "Advanced" mode.
    I'm not saying the display profile isn't involved, it most certainly is. The whole issue is the conversion into the display profile. And it also shows to varying degree with different display profiles - sometimes just subtle cyan bands, easily missed until you look for it, other times more pronounced and with secondary red banding (like here).
    It also happens with sRGB as display profile. So the bug is real, no question about that.
    What's different here is that there's cyan also in the highlights. But that could be the screenshot - or it could be "just" a bad display profile. I'm not ruling that out, just pointing out that there is a more likely explanation in this case.
