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"

  • Please, please, please make ICC profile info available for RGB files.

    I know, I know, I know - if everything's working properly one should never care what the icc profile is that's being used to interpret the colors in a file. And good people shouldn't get killed by falling tree branches... but stuff happens, and sometimes icc profiles are not handled properly and colors are off because the wrong profile is being used or is absent and assumed to be sRGB when that is not correct.
    Photographers care about color and nothing is more important than the ICC profile when it comes to properly displaying colors.
    I'd also like to see the ability to assign an ICC profile, swap an ICC profile, and convert to specified ICC profile. But I'd be happy enough just to have the icc profile name displayed - I could take it from there...
    PS - I'd like to see this feature removed in ten years (I'm an optimist) after all image handling software handles icc profiles correctly, until then... (please).
    Thanks in advance,
    Rob

    Never mind - I just realized this information is available via ExifMeta (plugin) - I retract the request for personal purposes.
    Still, it might be worth consideration for people who don't use ExifMeta.

  • Pixel Bender only available for jpg files?

    I'm running Photoshop CS5 on a brand new macbook. Everything has been working fine. I recently installed Pixel Bender and started playing with it. It seems to work fine on .jpg files, but whenever I open any PSD files, (or raw files from my Nikon) the Pixel Bender menu item is grayed out. I'm sure I am doing something wrong, but can't for the life of me figure out what that might be. I read that the filter needs to be applied to a smart object, so I tried creating a new layer and converted it to a smart object. But still the PB menu item is unavailable!! Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.

    Mode is RGB and 8 bits.
    However, it appears that the problem has gone away. I did uninstall and reinstall the exention.  It must have been an anomoly because I can not reproduce the issue. Thanks for your attention to this issue. Regards.

  • LR 4 and custom DNG camera profiles... they are not embedded?!

    i have the colorchecker passport for some days.
    my workflow:
    import the .CR2 raw files from memorycard as DNG copy into lightroom.
    create a DNG camera profile with the colorchecker passport (LR export -> xrite colorchecker).
    then i choose the created camera profile and i set the whitebalance.
    all working fine... as it should.
    my problem is, i don´t want to have a hundred DNG profiles, i will sure create that much over the time, on my harddisk.
    i think it´s messy and it´s also not very save to have the profiles only as separate files, in case you lose the profiles.
    i thought the camera profile can be embedded INTO the DNG file.
    i thought the camera profile is written into the DNG files when i write the metadata back into the files.. but it seems not.
    it seems the DNG camera profile is only embedded into the DNG image file when i EXPORT the DNG file again with the LR export dialog.
    for example:
    i choose the camera profil "MY 5D MK2 PROFIL_1" for an image and then save the metadata back into the DNG image file.
    then i delete the camera profile "MY 5D MK2 PROFIL_1" from harddisk.
    the next time i open LR and select the same image ... the cameraprofile is reverted back to "adobe standard" and the profil i have created is gone.
    when i EXPORT the image as DNG, then even after i have deleted the DNG cameraprofile "MY 5D MK2 PROFIL_1" from the hardisk.... the profil is still in the DNG image.
    that´s what i want... but i have to export all files again as DNG files.
    i would really like to get rid of this extra step.
    i hope my english is good enough so you understand what my problem is.
    can anyone share a light on this?
    is this the only way to embedd the DNG camera profile or im doing something wrong?
    intel i7 2600k, win7 64bit, 16 GB ram, LR 4 final.

    possible.... but imho that can lead (at least in my case ) to problems.
    in the case when you forget to update the DNG manually and delete the profiles (because you think they are already embeded via STRG+S).
    or when you send them to someone without updating the DNG preview... i think that is unessesary complicating things without gaining a real benefit.. not?
    afaik there is no filter option so you can create a smartfilter for images that need to be updated this way?

  • DNG camera profile - which to trust, Adobe's or X-Rite's?

    I found that dual-illuminant DNG camera profiles created with X-Rite's ColorChecker application and Adobe's DNG Profile Editor give different visual results (the profiles were produced using the same set of 6500K/2850K illuminated photos). I'm now in trouble which profile(s) to trust, I assume Adobe's is correct...

    I like the DNG Profile Editor better.
    Me too. The purpose of the twisting is for more pleasing color. Cool dark greens, but warmer light greens; dark midnight blues, but warmer cyany light blues, deep dark reds, but warmer light reds...
    Note: this exagerates what often happens in real life: shadows are cool, sunlit colors are warmer...
    The linear profiles may be more accurate, but the twisted profiles may look better.
    Obviously this is subjective, and may depend on the shot and the purpose for it...
    My favorite profile is a customized version of Adobe Standard created with DNG Profile Editor - a little dimmer in the upper-midtones/lower-highlights, a little less cyany blues, a little cooler greens, and slightly warmer (less magenta-y) reds.

  • DNG Camera Profile vs. White Balance?

    I'm having trouble understanding DNG Camera Profiles and haven't found a good explanation online. I understand that each camera or camera/lens combination will have some variations, and I understand the white balance process. But I haven't grasped the idea that I can create a usable profile using one or two ColorChecker shots in conditions that aren't tightly controlled. For example, if I create a DNG Camera Profile using my tungsten lights, how does that help correct photos shot using different slightly warmer or cooler lights? How does the profile taken at an unknown color temperature help correct for another color temperature? And (more fundamentally) how is what the DNG Camera Profiles do different from a white balance adjustment? Feel free to just point me towards an existing explanation. I've read a lot about camera profiles, but I still don't quite get it. Thanks.

    See this Luminance Landscape thread about dual illuminant profiles:
    http://luminous-landscape.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=43733
    If you scroll down to where I (tlooknbill) posted Color Checker chart samples, you'll see the visual differences.
    Your camera may deliver different results.

  • Looking inside of DNG Camera Profiles and editing them

    For those interested in the insides of DNG Camera profiles, and how to edit them, I've written dcpTool.
    dcpTool is a compiler/decompiler for DNG camera profiles (.dcp files). dcpTool can decompile binary format DCP files into an XML format for editing with a text editor or whatever, and then compile the XML format file back into a binary DCP file, as well as extract embedded profiles from DNG files. It runs on Windows and OS X command lines, and is based on V1.2 of the DNG SDK.
    See here: http://dcptool.sourceforge.net/
    Health warning: dcpTool is a command line utility - if you're not comfortable with command line stuff, dcpTool probably won't be of any interest to you.

    Very cool, thanks for the info.

  • Help me understand matrix profiles (DNG camera profiles)

    I'm guessing it's a fairly simple question, so please bear with me as I'm working my way round trying to understand the DNG format:
    After the de-bayering step, are DNG camera profiles pure 3-channel mathematical curves? I know Adobe DNG editor allows for adjustments from the Color-checker patches & there's some hue sliders etc, but do these build into RGB curves, or is it some kind of additional mild LUT (or something else) applied over the top?
    Thanks!

  • Feature Request: Opcodes in DNG Camera Profiles?

    We now have V1.3 of the DNG spec, with support for opcodes, which is great.
    Now, can we the ability to put opcodes in DNG camera profiles?
    Given all the hard work has already been done to support opcodes, this would seem to me to be a really value adding thing to do. It would allow profiles to be created that support specific camera/lens combinations. E.g., it would allow the Leica M8's famous "Cyan corners" vignetting problem on uncoded wide ange lenses to be addressed by a profile rather than having to rewrite all the image's raw data.
    Thanks,
    Sandy

    The files are in this directory on my Vista machine and my Win7 machine.
    How far do you get when you try to click down to that path in Explorer:  C:\ ?
    If so:
    C:\ProgramData is a hidden directory.
    You can enable visibility of hidden files and folders by going to:
    My Computer / Alt-Tools / Folder options... / View
    and near the top you will find Hide and Show hidden files options.
    However, you can also just open My Computer and type c:\programdata into the Address area and hit Enter and you'll be in that folder despite it being hidden, then click your way down to where you need to be.

  • When will Camera raw be available for processing Canon 7d Mark two in Photoshop Elements 12

    When will Camera raw be available for processing Canon 7d Mark two in Photoshop Elements 12?

    Hi,
    Probably never.
    PSE 13 is now out and updates are usually only compatible with the latest version - ACR 8.6 didn't even make it for PSE 12.
    ACR 8.7 for PSE 13 should probably include support but we don't know when it will be released.

  • AC:U only available for shipping

    Anyone know why Assassin's Creed: Unity is only available for shipping on both the PS4 and X1 version? I know each store is gonna have like a zillion copies. Why can't I pre-order and select in-store pick up?

    Hi DannyEndurance,
    There are a few reasons why pre-order items on BestBuy.com may not be available for store pickup. In most situations though, this can generally be attributed to the item being an online-only product or all expected inventory having been already allocated to existing orders. While we can't provide any specifics here or details on upcoming product availability, I'd encourage you to keep an eye on BestBuy.com for updates the closer we get to the release date. Remember that you can also pre-order many titles we carry by visiting your local Best Buy store.
    Thanks for your interest in pre-ordering Assassin's Creed: Unity with us!

  • Only Available for Store Pickup

    I have six Xbox 360 Games in my cart that I would love to purchase!  
    Only problem is "Only Available for Store Pickup" and no stores in my area?
    This really seems silly to me and is a missed sales opportunity.
    No one our buying these games and no one probably will.
    These titles have been available now for months...  
    Is there any possible way to simply have them shipped
    to me or my local BB if they must be picked up at a store?
    I would be more then happy to pick them up If I could.
    There must be a way around this, can someone here work their magic.
    Let's figure out how we can make this happen and make a sale!  
    THANKS - 3DK
    3DKillers - Founder of ClaN G!B

    Hi there 3DKillers, 
    How frustrating it would be to get a great selection of several games in your cart only to find they aren't available for store pickup in your area! If they're fairly popular games that we should be getting consistent stock of, it would seem strange that none of them are available in your area. 
    Sadly, if they are only available for store pickup, we would likely be unable to ship them to your home. With that said, if you should like to provide me the name for each game (SKUs would work perfectly) I would be happy to look further into this issue with you! 
    Sincerely,

  • EDI: Partner profile not available for the Ack received

    Hi All,
    All the scenarios are IDOC -->XI --> File
    We have different scenarios of IDOC to File, where SAP sends IDOC to two (we have 5 here letu2019s say 2) diff FTP locations one say FTP1 and other FTP2 and we used 3 business systems in SLD.
    1)      one for Sender SAP system(say BS_SAP) and assigned a Logical System say LS_SAPCLNT100
    2)     Second one for the receiver FTP1 and assigned a Logical System LS_FTP1
    3)     Third one for the receiver FTP2 and assigned a Logical System LS_FTP2
    And we are getting the error in the Sender SAP System for the acknowledgement sent from the FTP1 server EDI: Partner profile not available for the LS_FTP1 when we send the IDOC to FTP1 and EDI: Partner profile not available for the LS_FTP2 when we send the IDOC to FTP2.
    This is because in SAP we do not have the Logical Systems for LS_FTP1 and LS_FTP2.
    Now my question is how to get rid of this? Do we need to create Logical systems in SAP for third Party Systems?
    If not how to overwrite and use a single LS for all of the third party Business Systems?
    Please suggest .
    Regards,
    Sridhar Reddy
