Grid in ACR7 lens correction?

i'm sorry if this is a stupid question, but is there any way to turn on a grid in the ACR lens correction?

Sure, from the flyout menu or press the V key.

CS4 Lens correction filter/grid & color

In Distort>Lens Correction filter, the default grid is 16 and the color gray. Is there any way to change that so it stays to what you choose?
Everytime I change it, it changes back to the default settings when I use it again. How do you get your own settings to stick? Is it possible....what's the trick? I can't seem to find the preferences for this...if they even exist.

I think so..thanks you for sharing

Feature Suggestion: ruler guides instead of grid in Lens Correction

In my work, I photograph two dimensional artwork in artist's studios or galleries which do not have the space, time, or facilities to allow for perfect positioning when taking a picture. Since these photos are intended for print, it is essential that they are well aligned w/o being distorted. While just eye-balling works well for ordinary photos, these are doubly complicated because the image itself is contained within a four-sided shape that has to be "square."
I often need to use the custom tab of Lens Correction to adjust vertical or horizontal perspectives. In these cases, the problem isn't the distortion inherent in a particular lens, it is a problem due to the angle of the camera or to where I had to stand to take the photo, usually w/o tripod and often not hanging on the wall.
If I had the same kind of dragable guides I have in photoshop and could set them before starting, I wouldn't have to eye-ball it so much. I have to keep going back to PS to see if I nailed it and (usually) start over. The grid is not much help, regardless of size, because I have to choose whether to position it for the horizontal line I'm trying to achieve or for the vertical, but not both. (Not to mention that dragging and positioning the grid isn't exactly a piece of cake!). If I could place four guides where I need them, I would be better able to tell how each nudge of the slider is affecting the image.
It's hard to describe the problem but, if you create a square custom shape then use the 3-d controls to turn it sideways a few degrees and tilt it slightly back, you see what I'm up against.

There would also be able to simply add the "perspective"as in Photoshop, probablyeasier to develop and integrate the interface.

Moveable guide lines in Lens Correction

It would be very nice and useful to have adjustable guide lines in the Lens Correction filter. The grid never seems to line up with critical elements that need to be straighten. Moveable guide lines that can be placed right on or next to elements would be a great help. It would also be nice if the dialog box read the exif info to remind you what lens you were using. And a way to record setting for particular lenses that you could add notes to would also be very helpful. thanks jeff

Elements using the Camera Raw plug-in doesn’t allow for lens-corrections. Since you’ve posted your question in the Elements forum, is that what you’re using? The much more expensive regular Photoshop hosting the camera-raw plug-in and the less-expensive Lightroom do allow selecting lens profile corrections.
The Camera Calibration area you refer to only deals with raw camera profiles for color rendition, not lens profiles that would correct geometric distortion.
A more fundamental question is whether there are actually lens-distortion-correction profiles for a FinePix HS10. Usually Adobe supplies lens profiles for most Canon and Nikon DSLRs although there are a few others for other brands and types of camera, with a Fuji point-and-shoot having less chance of having a lens-profile created by Adobe.
There is an Adobe Lens Profile Downloader tool for getting third-party lens-profiles and checking it just now, it appears there is a raw profile for the FinePix HS10/HS11 built-in lens, but you still need to be using an Adobe product other than Elements to apply such a profile.

Manual Lens Correction in Lightroom 4

The Manual Lens Correction sliders in Lightroom 4 seem completely useless. They aren't working the same as they do in Lightroom 3. Instead of being able to fix keystoning of images, now the horizontal and vertical sliders just stretch or distort photos. Is this a bug? If not, is it possible to go back to the functionality from LR3? If this isn't possible, I'm probably going to switch back to Lightroom 3, since this is one of the program's most useful features.

... This functionality hasn't changed at all for me - it works exactly as before.
I think so, too.
See my example in the feedback forum demonstrating the different effect of the manual transformation sliders depending on the angle of view: http://feedback.photoshop.com/photoshop_family/topics/i_would_love_automation_in_the_lens_ correction_manual_panel : There is an automatic aspect ratio correction, and for photos taken with a rather small angle of view, this is mostly a stretch/distort. Which is totally correct IMHO (and hasn't changed since LR3).
P.S. I don't know which angle of view LR assumes for photos w/o information about focal length and sensor size (probably 50mm focal length and 35 mm film format ("full format") sensor.

Lens Corrections unavailable in Adobe Camera Raw 8.3

hello,
since i switched to photoshop CC (mac version), i am having constant problems with lens corrections in ACR 8.3. i am a professional photographer and i use various canon pro lenses that all exist as unique lens profiles already in photoshop and ACR's lens profile archives. when i open canon .CR2 files in adobe ACR 8.3, i encounter the message "unable to load lens profile" at the bottom right of dialog box and even though the correct lenses are identified, ACR cannot apply corrections (please see the attached visual). furthermore, this behavior happens to be sort of erratic, since it may sometimes decide to apply corrections without displaying the "unable to load lens profile" error message.
when i open the files into photoshop CC without being able to apply corrections, i try the "lens correction" menu within photoshop and it works. it is very cumbersome not to be able to do this at the ACR stage.
the ACR that came with photoshop CS 6 never had such problems and it corrected all the lenses that i had.
can you please help me to fix this issue ASAP, since this error makes me lose a lot of time in my workflow.
i also have photoshop CS6 installed in the same disk, could this have any effect?
best regards,
murat germen

Presumably you're shooting raw for everything, right, otherwise the issue can be that most raw-capable-camera's JPGs don't have lens profiles whereas raw files do, so profiles are found for raw images but not JPGs. The reverse is sometimes true, too, where a camera used to only have JPG output but now produces raw files. I believe the DJI Phantom Vision FC200 quadcopter camera is an example of such. The screenshot doesn't have enough of the ACR interface to see the name of the file.
Are the profiles that aren't found consistently the same lens or are they from various lenses that also have photos that work in ACR 8.3 at other times? And do the same photos that fail to have lens profiles load in ACR 8.3 at one point then work if you open them again, later? In other words does the intermittency seem to be tied to either the specific photos or the specific lenses or not? Specific photos could mean there is something corrupted in the photo. Specific lenses could mean that the lens profiles are missing, somehow, or inaccessible due to permission problems.
Is CS6 updated to the same ACR 8.3 version or is it older? If it is older then install the ACR 8.3 update for CS6. This will re-install the lens and camera profiles, again.
If CS6 is already updated to ACR 8.3, too, then install the DNG Converter 8.3, which also will install the profiles, again.
The DNG Converter can be found, here:
http://www.adobe.com/downloads/updates
If you can't figure it out, then uninstall PS-CC, log out of the CC Desktop app, log back in--so it sees that CC is missing, then re-download and install CC. This should reset ACR back to 8.0 or 8.1 after which you can install the ACR 8.3 update, again.

How to Save Camera Calibration and Lens Correction in Camera raw 6.1

I downloaded and installed the Camera Raw 6.1 release candidate. I open an image and set the camera calibration and the lens correction to auto for Nikon. I save these settings as new Camera raw defaults, but when I open other images, the changes were not made. How can I save these items as defaults?
Swila

Swila, were your "other images" previously edited in Camera Raw? I.e., do they already have saved image settings? The defaults that you save via the flyout menu will only apply to new images, or if you reset an existing image to the defaults. (e.g., choose "Camera Raw Defaults" from the flyout menu).

ACR 8.7 release candidate, Nikon D750, Lens corrections tab

I capture images using a Nikon D750 & AF-S NIKKOR 24-120mm f/4G ED VR lens with image quality set for NEF (RAW) + JPEG fine & image size set for Large. Slot 1 card saves the NEF files & slot 2 card saves the JPEG files. I download the images using Bridge CC Photo Downloader converting the NEF to a DNG while downloading. When editing the DNG image using the Lens Corrections tab in ACR it correctly recognizes the lens. When editing the JPEG image the same way it incorrectly identifies the lens as an AF-S NIKKOR 14-24mm f/2.8G ED and does not offer a choice for the correct lens. I hoping this can be fixed soon. A workaround that seems fairly accurate is to choose the AF-S NIKKOR 24-70 f2.8G ED instead for the JPEG images.
I recently had to install Camera Raw 8.7 for CC Release Candidate Version: RC 1, Date: October 2, 2014 to recognize the D750 NEF files.

What you’re seeing is normal. Most lens profiles from Adobe are for RAW files only. Many cameras do their own corrections, nowadays, so Adobe cannot assume the raw profile would work for JPGs from the camera as a general case. For example with my new Canon 7D Mark II, which I'm awaiting raw support for at all, I can select vignetting, chromatic-aberration and geometric distortion correction as separate items on the menu to be used for producing camera JPGs. Adobe doesn't attempt to interpret such proprietary information and apply the appropriate correction for corrections I haven't already asked the camera to do, they just don't supply a lens profile at all for JPGs. The kit lenses for some cameras seem to be the exception to this, as well as a few other lenses, which I'm not sure why they've supplied profiles for. You can also download profiles others have created, themselves, using the Adobe Lens Profile Downloader which you can find on the adobe.com site.
If you are confident you won't ever have distortion or vignetting correction enabled on your camera for the JPGs it produces, then you can hack a copy of the Adobe-supplied raw profile for a particular lens to be for non-raws, by changing the whateverRAW tag from True to False, and put the modified profile in the user-created profiles area of your computer and it’ll be seen and used.

Adobe Camera Raw - lens correction profiles not found

I use Photoshop CC as part of the photography program of Creative Cloud. My platform is a Mac Book Pro (2013) with the latest Mac OS-X operating system. I have also installed Bridge CC and Lightroom 5.
Since about three weeks (maybe after an update but I'm not sure on that) Adobe Camera Raw's lens correction feature fails permanently. With older pictures (taken long before the error occured for the first time) as well as with new photos and with dng files as well as with cr2 files the ACR dialog always shows the error message (lens correction profile can't be found - since I have the German version of Photoshop this is how I would translate the error message). I didn't install or uninstall any programs, plugins etc. around the time of the first occurance of the error.
I already uninstalled Photoshop CC completely (using the uninstall function in the programs folder) and reinstalled it via Creative Cloud but it still shows the same error.
What can I do?

Hello, you can make sure the latest version is installed by going to help-updates.
Also, make sure that you are running the latest version of the creative cloud application, as it fixes a permission problem that might cause the issue you are facing. Just go to the creative cloud application on your menu bar, and restart it.

Olympus E-P1 Support / Lens Corrections?

Hey there, I recently picked up an Olympus E-P1 with the 14-42mm lens. I updated to ACR 5.5, so now Lightroom and Bridge can open the RAW files (ORF format). The Adobe DNG converter also works on those files.
However, none of these result in correcting barrel distortion, which is noticeable with the 14mm shots. I also don't see an option to manually control any lens distortions in LR or ACR. Photoshop CS4 has a lens correction filter, but it doesn't work as well as the Olympus Master software (their software for working with RAW files).
Any thoughts on this? Should LR / ACR automatically fix the barrel distortions, or am I missing a setting?

Most of the shots are done JPEG + RAW, and the JPEG and RAW files are identical. I can post a set if you want.
It's a little odd, because I was under the impression that the camera's JPEG engine is supposed to do this type of lens correction. I asked Olympus about this but haven't heard yet. As you can probably tell though, the EXIF data is intact.

Lens Correction and JPEGs

Hi,
I'm new to LR. I've spent the last two months watching every tutorial, practicing with a portfolio/video instructional off the Adode site and reorganizing my own photos and folders on my computer.
I finally took the "bold" step to put a few of my photos into LR. All my photos are from either a Nikon 3000 or 3100 with the same lens AF-S DX Nikkor 18-135mm f/3.5-5.6G ED.
Also, all my photos are JPEGs.
1) In Lens Correction > Profile > Enable Profile Correction there are 3 options
Default (no make/model options)
Auto (no make/model options)
Custom > when I click this I get the model and Adobe profile for the Nikon AF-S Nikkor 14-24mm f/2.8G ED
Is the Adobe profile the same for both lenses? The 14-24 and the lens on my camera - the 18-135?
Default and Auto look the exact same. If I click Custom, the image becomes a little more exposed. To my eye, Default/Auto look better.
2) Also, should I "check" chromatic aberration for all my photos? I'm not sure how this feature works in LR with JPEGs.
3) Considering where I am and my skills at this point, what is the best recommendation going forward, for learning LR and working with my JPEGs.
Since I'm going to be essentially working only with JPEGS for a while, what lens correction should I use with these photos? Default/Auto/Custom?
4) Are there any other settings that I need to pay attention to with the camera/lens/file type that I am using while trying to learn LR?
I'm starting to realize from my readings, that JPEGS will have a more limited range of development in LR and "LR will display only the profiles available for the file type of the selected image." Lens profile support | Lightroom 5, 4, 3 | Photoshop CS6, CS5 | Camera Raw 8, 7, 6
I want to become a more serious amateur and enthusiastic photographer, but I also don't want to spend 15 minutes editing/developing every semi-decent photo I take.
As an aside, my 3100 has a shutter problem, so I will be upgrading at some point (probably Micro 4/3) and I plan to explore shooting RAW or a combination of RAW/JPEG somewhere down the road.
Thanks
Andrew

As I understand lens correction profiles, most are written for RAW photos only, and there are only a few profiles written for JPGs. That would explain why you don't see your specific lens under Custom.
2) Also, should I "check" chromatic aberration for all my photos? I'm not sure how this feature works in LR with JPEGs.
I'm certainly not the biggest expert on chromatic aberration, but it seems to me that the chromatic aberration algorithms are looking for certain types of coloration at "edges", and I don't see why that would be different for JPGs compared to RAWs.
But I'm confused by the actual question ... checking the box and seeing if it makes the photo better seems so simple that I don't really understand why you had to ask the question.
3) Considering where I am and my skills at this point, what is the best recommendation going forward, for learning LR and working with my JPEGs.
Since I'm going to be essentially working only with JPEGS for a while, what lens correction should I use with these photos? Default/Auto/Custom?
Again, the learning process in Lightroom is ... just do it. You can't harm your photos, you can always undo whatever you did that you didn't like. The lens correction you choose is the one that makes the photo's appearance look best to you.
4) Are there any other settings that I need to pay attention to with the camera/lens/file type that I am using while trying to learn LR?
Any setting and any slider and any tool might be the right one for your photo. There is no general setting that EVERYONE uses, as the reason software provides options is that some people want it one way, and other people want it a different way.
I want to become a more serious amateur and enthusiastic photographer, but I also don't want to spend 15 minutes editing/developing every semi-decent photo I take.
The learning curve can be difficult, but as I said, editing your photos will never harm your originals, and you can always undo whatever you did. So ... just do it.
I am concerned that even as a beginner, you think it might take you 15 minutes to edit a single photo. Unless you are doing a HUMONGUS amount of brushing, this should never take 15 minutes, even for a beginner. Yes, of course if you want everything to be absolutely PERFECT, then it will take longer, but there really is no such thing as a PERFECT photo. Your goal ought to be (in my opinion) making the photos look GOOD, and learning what the sliders and tools do as you go. And certainly there is no unique determination of what a GOOD photo is, a photo that looks GOOD to you may not look good to someone else, but that's kind of irrelevant, its your photo, it should only matter that it looks GOOD to you.
You said you watched tutorials, are these tutorials helping, or not? Do you feel you have learned the basic purpose of (some of) the develop sliders and develop tools, or not?

Lens Correction Profiles: Pasting develop settings in bridge yields inconsistent crop

Hello Everyone,
I recently discovered lens correction profiles which have been a real benefit to me in my most recent batch of images shot at 16mm on a Canon 5d MII. The lens distortion isn't always spot on, but it is a huge headstart most of the time.
I bracket photos for HDR and will apply all my crop settings to one image in the bracketed series and afterwards psate the settings onto all the others in the series. This works great.
However, once I started using Lens Correction Profiles, when I paste the crop setting onto the subsequent images, the crop is in a different position. I was completely baffled. But after some fiddling around, I noticed that if I manually open each of the subsequent images, remove the crop, uncheck and recheck the Lens Correction Profile, and reapply the crop, it is consistent with the first. This leads me to believe that somewhere in the Paste Setting sequence, it is doing the crop out of order. (As if it is cropping the image and THEN applying the lens correction--which yeild different results.)
(As a item of note, when I mean cropping, I use the automatic crop obtained by highlighting the entire area of the image after applying lens corrections so as to only crop out the grey areas acquired by shifting the image around while still maintaining aspect ratio.)
Is there any way we can get the pasting to paste so as to make these subsequent images identical to the original image? Or am I missing something?
Relevant Specs:
OS: Windows 7 Professional 64-bit
Bridge 4.0.4.2
Adobe Camera Raw 6.4.0.139
Photoshop 12.0.3 x64
Thanks,
Dave

Normally, when you apply a lens correction profile, there shouldn't be any visible gray areas around the border of the image.
Are you saying this is not the case?
Are you making additional distortion or keystoning adjustments (e.g., in the manual tab)?

Odd Issue Editing in Photoshop with color and lens corrections

First off, I'm on LR 4.4 and PS CS6 (Camera Raw 7.4.0.137) using ProPhoto RGB as my LR colorspace and have my PS color settings as Working Space: ProPhoto RGB and my color management policies to preserve embedded profiles.
When I right click on a DNG in LR and choose "Edit in Photoshop", LR sends it to PS and PS does its "Reading in Camera Raw Format" and opens the image. However, the colors are off (very muted) and any lens corrections I've applied in LR are missing. My monitor (iMac on OSX 10.8) is calibrated with a Spyder. I've also noticed that if I choose to edit in another application, it renders the tiff fine and the color and lens corrections are correct in the tiff.
Anyone have any ideas what my issue is?
Thanks,
Matt
ETA: After some experimenting, it seems that the "Adobe Standard" profile is what gets sent to Photoshop. The rest (Camera Landscape, Portrait, etc.) are ignored. What's going on here?

Sounds like you need to reset your warning dialog. Preferences>General>Prompts [Reset all warning dialogs]
Then try it again and make certain of the three choices you are Editing a Copy with Lightroom Adjustments.

Lens correction help needed: Nikon 14-24 used in model shoot...

Hello,
I just finished a model shoot with 9 models standing in a horizontal line relative to the camera. Because of the very short working distance I had to use a Nikon 14-24mm lens to fit everyone in, resulting in the end girls being noticeably distorted (unpleasantly "wide"). They certainly won't like that!
I've opened the raw file in CR, but have not found settings for lens correction that fix this. CR has the correct lens profile, but no matter how I play with the settings manually or automatically, things just don't look right. Similarly, if I open corresponding TIFF in Filter -> Lens correction, I still run into the same issue.
I've enclosed a sample out-of-the-camera image so you can what I'm talking about. Hoping there's a way to correct the twp outermost girls w/o sacrificing those in the middle... They are much slimmer than in the shot.
Running PS CS 5.5 on Win7/64
Thanks!
Jerry

Hi Toasted
I've seen the adds for the DxO Viewpoint and thought they had a great idea on their hands providing it as a Plug-in. However, I've been using the full DxO Optics Pro as my Raw file editor for a couple of years now, and ran your shot through that, and not the plug-in.
Judging my my results, I think the full version is a more powerful tool; the "Volume Anamorphosis" correction in the full version is a semi-automated tool. Simply applying the correction at the initial automated setting still left me with some distortion in the models at either end, which was especially noticeable in the girl on the extreme right. However, I then manually tweaked the setting to the maximum available, to get the result above.
Now, there's no such thing as a free lunch, and you can't get something for nothing, and the same applies here. What's actually happening is that the Volume Anamorphosis is being "corrected" by re-introducing a set amount of Barrel Distortion into the image, oh, and the image has also been cropped, which is most noticeable in the bodywork of the cars on the left and right, but this is unavoidable. It isn't too obvious here, but if you were to have strong horizontals or verticals in the image, you'd see the curvature in them very easily.
Take a look at my own example below.
This was taken with a Tokina 11-16mm f2.8, and in the original the guitarist on the left, and the keyboardist on the right, both had the dreaded "squished head" effect! As you can see that's been fixed, but if you look at the pipes above the lights at the back, the line of the monitor cabinet at the lead singers feet, and the microphone stands, you can plainly see the curves... which is still infinitely preferable to distorted heads!
Good luck
Paul

Same shooting, multiple lenses, how to apply the appropriate lens correction when importing ?

Hello everyone,
How do you handle this:
For each camera, i have a default preset i'm choosing manualy and applying when importing my raw files into lightroom.
I'd like to also add some default lens correction to those presets.
The problem is that multiples lenses (meaning different corrections) may be applied.
How to apply the correct lens correction for each file, in the batch import ?
Thanks for your ideas ...
Aymeric

Update your existing develop presets so that the Lens Corrections are checked (see attached screen shot). Select the develop preset in Import dialog. Lr will automatically apply the appropriate default lens profile to each individual image during import.
