Canon EF 400/5.6 Lens Profile

My copy of LR4 does not have a profile for the Canon EF 400/5.6. There is one for the EF 400/4 IS DO and the EF 400/2.8 IS, but not for the 400/5.6. Does that mean that this lens doesn't need any corrections or just that nobody bothers?

If you download the free Lens Profile Creater from Adobe Labs, it comes with a Lens Profile Downloader where you can download user-created profiles. You can get it here: http://labs.adobe.com/downloads/lensprofile_creator.html
There are currently several profiles for the 400/5.6 with and without a Teleconverter available.
All lenses need corrections...

  • Canon FD 50mm 1.8 Lens Profile for Canon 60D

    I've created a lens profile today for the Canon FD 50mm 1.8 on a Canon 60D using the Fotodiox adapter.  I sent it to Adobe for posting publicly.   If anyone would like to download it in the meantime you can find it here:
    Please click this link
    I might have messed it up.  It's my first time creating a profile and seemed to work fine for me in Lightroom.  Let me know if there are any improvements to be made. I used f5.6 since that seemed to be the sweet spot on the lens and the imager was about 5 feet from the chart.

    JPG lens profiles are distinct from RAW lens profiles because cameras can fix things with the camera-produced JPGs that the lens profiles also fix and you can get double-corrections by using a raw lens profile with a jpg, but it depends on the capabilities and settings of the particular camera.
    If you are sure your camera isn’t correcting geometric and vignetting issues with your JPGs, then you can hack the lens profile you downloaded to use it with JPGs, by editing the .lcp file with a text editor and change the flag indicating it is for raw files from True to False.  I forget what this flag is called, exactly, but it is obvious and near the top of the files.
    On Windows, the lens profiles are downloaded to:
    C:\Users\--username--\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\CameraRaw\LensProfiles\
    AppData is a hidden or system folder so you’ll need to unhide such folders in the folder options in Explorer or just type in the path an hit Enter in the address area of Explorer.

  • Help with importing lens profile to Lightroom 5.4 for Windows

    Hi,
    I'm running Adoble Lightroom 5.4 on Windows. I recently bought a Rokinon 14mm lens for Canon and have a couple lens profiles that I want to try out. I have already tried importing to the two following locations below and nothing showed up when I restarted Lightroom. Any solutions?@@
    C: > Users > User > AppData > Roaming > Adobe > CameraRaw > LensProfiles > 1.0 > Then I created a folder called Downloaded > Then I created another folder inside the folder Downloaded called Rokinon and dropped the lens profiles in there.
    Here is the other one I tried:
    C: > Program Files > Adobe > Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 5.4 > Resources > LensProfiles > 1.0 > Then I created a folder called called Rokinon and dropped the lens profiles in there.

    Something is weird about this lens profile file.  It appears to be for a Canon 85mm lens, not a Samyang 14mm lens, and, as you say, this profile is for JPG files not RAW files.  If you want it to apply to raw files you need to change the CameraRawProfile from False to True.
    After changing the False to True, because the Make is set to Canon you have to go to the Canon lens list not the Samyang list in the Lens Profile selection dropdown list, or edit the Make to have Samyang..
    Because there is an 85 for several focal-length numbers, not 14, I think the correction being applied may be totally wrong.   Where did you get this lens profile file? The other profile file you sent has 50mm in some focal-length areas and 85 in others.
    To be able to tell if this, or the other profile, is reasonable, you probably need to take a picture of something with a grid of lines, like a brick wall and see if there is barrel or pincushion distortion that is corrected or worsened.
    Here is a screencapture of the file as it looks in a text editor with notes about what seems wrong:

  • Changing a lens profile in Notepad?

    I recieved a Samyang 14mm F2/8 (used on Canon 50D) this weekend, and can not find a profile for it. I did find one for the Canon 40D using the Adobe Lens Profile Downloader, and it is not recognized in LR 5.3, on Windows 7. After looking at in Notepad, I tried changing all references to Canon 40D to Canon 50D, hoping it would work, at least enough for me to test this lens. It is still not recognized in LR, and I am wondering if anyone has tried to make a change such as this, and had it work for them. If all elses fails, I will create the profile!
    Thanks,
    Larry

    The Adobe Lens Profile Downloader should automatically install the profile to the correct user folder. Check as ssprengel has outlined to be sure the profile is actaully in the correct folder. The only profile I see is for raw image files. If you are using JPEG image files this raw profile will not show inside LR in the Lens Profile list. You can edit the lens profile in Notepad so that it will work with JPEGs and save it with a different name (add_JPEG). Keep in mind the vignetting correction is slightly different for raw files than JPEGs, but the distortion correction should be the same. You may need to set the Vignetting slider to a higher or lower setting than 100 to get a closer match for JPEGs. Procedure here:

  • Conversion of downloaded lens profiles

    Hi,
    I have a Canon EOS 500D with an ef-s18-135mm f/3.5-5.6 is lens.
    I found a lens profile for a Canon EOS 7D in the Lens Profile Downloader.
    Can I use/convert this profile for my Camera?
    Is there a way to use this profile, which is created for RAW images, for JPEG images?
    thanks!
    Peter

    The transformations specified in a lens-profile file are resolution independent and it is generally ok to apply a lens profile for a specific lens on one camera to the same model lens on another camera as long as you're not using a crop-sensor-camera profile with a full-sensor-camera image.

  • Is there a lens profile for Samyang 14mm and Canon 5D2 ?

    Hi !
    I'm thinking about buying a new Samyang / Rokinon / Bower etc 14mm wide angle full frame lens.
    However, this lens has bad moustache distortion on stills images - not good for architecture.
    Is there an Adobe lens profile for Adobe Camera Raw (Photoshop CS6 Bridge) for full frame Canon 5D2 / 3 or 1Ds 3 etc ?
    It's needed for Mac - don't know if there is any difference.
    Advice before I buy would be much appreciated ...

    Yay that's great news ... and thanks for such a speedy reply.
    Didn't know about the Adobe Lens Profile Downloader ... so have just downloaded it for Mac and found the lens profile.
    Appreciate your help ... it'll hopefully be great for correcting the distorion i need.

  • After upgrade to  lightroom 4.3, my canon 7D is not showing up in lens profile correction

    I think this happened after upgrading to lightroom 4.2, but I am not sure as I haven't used Lens profile correction in some time.
    When I enable the "Enable profile corrections" checkbox in "lens corrections" The Make and model of the lens is recognized, but the profile field has only 2 optoins, "canon EOS 1D MK III" and "Adobe". It does not have any other options including the EOS 7D that I use. Tried uninstalling and installing again, that didn't help.
    I found in the forum that for Win 7, lens profile is supposed to be stored in "C:\ProgramData\Adobe\CameraRaw\LensProfiles\1.0", in my case the LensProfiles directory does not exist. There is a CameraProfiles directory(C:\ProgramData\Adobe\CameraRaw\CameraProfiles).
    How do I solve this?

    There is nothing wrong with your lens profiles. 
    The issue is that you are adjusting a JPG not a raw file.  When adjusting raw files the camera model is not listed with the profile because it doesn’t matter and all of them say Adobe as their source for Canon cameras at least, but when adjusting JPGs the camera may have done certain adjustments internally so it does matter and is why you see the wrong lens-distortion occurring when choosing the 5D Mark III profile with your 7D JPGs.
    For the record, I have profiles in both the locations mentioned: under Program Files\...\CameraRaw and under ProgramData\...\Lightroom 4.x.  This makes sense because I have both Photoshop CS6 and Lightroom installed.  The ones under Lightroom are all dated 12/2012 while the ones under Camera Raw are mostly dated 2/2012 with some from 11/2012 and other dates.  The profiles are probably the same, but the Camera Raw ones retain the date of the original profile creation whereas the Lightroom ones all get updated to the same date.  Lens profiles can also be installed with the DNG Converter, although I'm not sure which of the two locations those install to.

  • Canon 8-15mm f4 lens profile in lightroom 5 is not there

    Does anyone know what lens profile to use for the Canon 8-15mm f4 fisheye in lightroom 5

    I have the Canon EF 8-15mm fisheye lens and use it on both the 5D MKII full-frame and 600D 1.6 crop bodies. This lens exhibits very little vignetting at all focal lengths on either body and of course exhibits 100% distortion.
    The biggest issue with this lens is lateral and axial chromatic aberration. Selecting 'Remove Chromatic Aberration' does a good job of removing the lateral CA, but there is still significant axial CA present. To correct the axial CA I use the Defringe tool. Using too high of a Defringe setting can desaturate like colors (i.e. purple) in the actual image, but the following Defringe settings work well with virtually all images without any significant desaturation:
    Full-Frame, 1.6 & 1.3 Crop Body
    8-12mm: Amount = 2, Purple Hue = 30/55
    13-15mm: Amount = 4, Purple Hue = 30/55
    If you are trying to rectilinear correct your images so they don't exhibit fisheye distortion the Canon 7D lens profile for the 8-15mm  available in the Adobe Lens Profile Downloader will do that for both full-frame and 1.6 crop bodies. Unfortunately there is significant softness in the outer area of the image. It also does a fairly good job of correcting the small amount of vignetting on both bodies.
    I also use the PS Adaptive Wide Angle filter and Fisheye Hemi plugin with much better performance concerning sharpness, but without full distortion correction. For landscape work the image looks virtually 100% rectilinear.
    You can read my review of this lens on Amazon for more details on the LR settings I use:

  • Lens profile - Canon EF-S 60mm f/2.8 Macro USM

    I am using Lightroom V5.  When I went to use the Lens Profile Correction feature, I could not find this lens in the database. This prime lens is one that is most recommended for portrait work on a Canon EF-S body. Why doesn't Adobe have a lens correction profile for it? Has anyone created one? Thank you.

    So... can SOME lens profiles be used on JPG, and some only on RAW? I seem to have a choice of many other lenses for JPG files, so I'm not sure why the 16-35mm would only be for RAW. Can someone shed some light?
    Thanks!
    Best,

    Hi,
    As with other camera manufacturers Canon applies lens correction data during the in-camera production of the JPG, although not as much as it applies in DPP. Therefore typically it is only required to correct the RAW file.

  • Missing Canon lens profile into lightroom

    Hi Guys
    I have LR4.1 and I just realized that I am missing the one for my 100-400 f4,5/5,6
    any idea how can I get it ?
    Many thanks
    have a super day, Thierry

    It is possible to save a duplicate of the lens profile file, and "kludge" it from Raw to non-Raw using a text editor. This generally works well enough; much better than manual corrections alone - provided that the camera is not also applying lens correction, and so confusing matters.

  • Can I use a Canon Lens profile if there isn't a Sony profile ?

    I just bought the Tamron SP 90 2.8 DI MACRO USD and LR lens profiles only lists this lens for Canon (F004E) and Nikon (F004N). There is no profile for Sony (F004S) ! Any drawback if I use F004E or N ? Or better use a the profile of the older Model of that lens where there is a Sony profile ?
    Thanks for answers !

    kleinjn wrote:
    One could ask why are there versions of the same profile for Nikon, Canon, Sony and may be others ?
    Good question.
    My guesses:
    * The lens description is not guaranteed to be unique across all camera models, so having camera model in the mix assures the correct lens is unambiguously chosen.
    * Adobe wants to reserve the right to do things differently based on camera model, for the reasons hinted at in my previous post (e.g. data may be registered differently in the lens depending on camera model).
    It's kinda like camera calibration profiles - there is a separate Adobe Standard profile for every camera, and in many cases, it's identical to that for other cameras, but in some cases, it's different.
    PS - I think Eric Chan is the only person likely to give you a definitive answer here, but maybe some other savvy user knows..

  • Lens profile Canon g1x mark II

    Dear all,
    yesterday I installed the new Lightroom 5.5.
    I own a Canon G1X Mark II (as a second camera). I can view and work with the raw files of this camera, no problem (this was working with 5.4, too).
    But I cannot see this camera model in the lens profile selection. Only the previous model is listed.
    Now my questions: Is a lens profile for the new mark II available?
    Or will it come with a new release?
    Does anybody know if there is a public lens profile available?
    Regards
    Bernd

    I’d guess the G1X has always-on profiles encoded in the raw files so there’s no external Adobe profile needed.
    Starting with Camera Raw 8.4 plug-in for Photoshop, it will say when there is a built-in, always on profile being used, but LR didn't get this capability, yet.  curvature of straight lines parallel to and near to the borders of the photos or do things look relatively straight.  If the latter, there is probably a lens profile being used behind the scenes, already.
    If you want you can upload a G1X raw file you're curious about, using www.dropbox.com and post a public download link, here, and maybe someone will see it and test for you in Photoshop.

    There is a repository, it's accessible through CS5's lens correction plugin, and there doesn't appear to be one for this lens at that spot at the moment.

  • Lens profile for Canon 28/1.8 - already installed in LR4?

    Hmm, the explanation of lens profiles and how to add them is a little confusing.
    When I look here in Adobe's own list of supported lenses, my new "Canon EF 28mm f/2.8 IS USM" is listed there:
    http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/multi/lens-profile-support-lightroom-4.html
    Does that mean that profile should already be installed in LR 4? (I am running 4.4)
    The profile is not showing up in Lightroom for me. (I am shooting JPEG.)
    I downloaded the lens profile downloader, and found a profile for this lens, but is that the official Adobe profile for the lens? I installed it but it still doesn't work for me because it is for RAW only.
    Sorry for the newbie question.
    thanks in advance,

    If your using a version newer than mac os x 10.6.8 snow leopard, then see if installing the 8.6 dng converter gives you that lens profile in camera raw.
