Lens Correction filter not working?

I upgraded to CS5 specifically to use the auto lens correction feature (primarily for barrel and pincushion distortion on my Canon zoom lenses). Now I find that:
Even though the camera back (5D Mark II) and lens information is included with an image, the lens correction filter requires me to manually select the back and lens.
Several of my lenses are not even included in the data base, even though they're very popular lenses (e.g., EF16-35mm 2.8 L USM II and EF 70-300mm DO IS USM). I realize the data base is to be enlarged, but these seem like inexplicable omissions. (And I have no desire or time to create my own profiles.)
The PDF instruction manual for CS5 offers no help, and I don't see this issue addressed in the forums. I'm hoping someone will be able to advise me on how to make this function work.

Jeff,
   Thanks for the quick answer, but I still think the menu is misleading.
   If the body choices were in the format of "full frame, 1.3 crop, 1.6
crop, etc.", it would be clear that the specific model didn't matter.
However, this would create its own problems since many people wouldn't
understand the concept of the crop factor for their camera.
   The fact that the 5D Mark II exists in the pull-down menu as a discrete
choice in addition to the 1Ds Mark III implies that there is a difference
between the two. Even if there is no functional difference in this context,
it would avoid confusion if the actual body from the EXIF information could
always be the default selection.
   Thanks.

  • Lens correction filter doest work after hardware change

    Hello,
    Since I reinstalled my computer from scratch  after a hardware change (went from AMD GPU to an NVIDIA GPU)  lens correction filter doesn't work anymore.
    I can open the tool, do the corrections but when I pusch apply, the tool is closed but the corrections are not applied to the picture in the editor screen.
    No layer is added.
    When I close PSE multiple temp files are left in the root directory of my secundary drives.
    This happened with PSE 7 so I bougth PSE 9, de-installed PSE 7 and installed PSE 9. Guess what: same problem, no corrections applied.
    Is this Nvidia related since everything worked nice in PSE 7 with amd catalyst drivers ?
    I'm running Vista32 sp2, with latest directx and latest nvidia geforce drivers.

    1) The problem with the Delete Cropped Pixels option is that it essentially eliminates the nicest functionality of the new crop tool.....My suggestion to Adobe would be to enable some way of having the screen view imported into the lens correction filter but leaving the cropped information intact for future adjustments once the image was returned to the main PS window....
    2) The Camera RAW preferences setting adjustment was what I needed, thank you!
    3) The problem with the saving to PSD option, is that even when I do NOT have layers, it seems to default to saving as PSD.  Essentially, any adustment I make, except the most basic, even if I do not have any layers as a result, gets interpreted as needing to be saved as a PSD.  This is categorically different than in all prior editions of Photoshop.  (For instance, whenever I worked on JPGs and I would save a file on older versions, it would simply default to JPG unless I actually had visible layers in the layers window.  On this one, if I do anything like content-aware fill, or use the patch tool or healing brushes, it then saves to PSD by default, even though there are NO visible layers that need flattening.  It seems as if the program is interpreting those kinds of adjustments internally as layers and selecting PSD as the necessary file type to save to as a result.)
    Thanks for your help; if you have any other suggestions for work arounds for the third problem, I would greatly appreciate them.

  • The camera presets for the Lens Correction Filter are gone

    Hi!  I shoot with a Canon 5D Mk II and Mk III.  Sometimes I need to use the Lens Correction filter and have gotten used to seeing the dropdown choices for Canon cameras and associated lenses.  Suddenly, they are all gone.  Canon isn't even an option.  What could have happened to them and how can I get them back.  Any advice would be most appreciated.  Thanks!

  • Nikon D800 Camera not listed in the Lens Correction Filter under camera models in Photoshop CC 2014

    I do not see a Nikon D 800 Camera listed in the Lens Correction Filter under camera models. Is there any way to update this ?

    The lens distortion corrections are encoded in such a way that they are independent of the body of camera that they were determined with--in other words they are in terms of millimeters not pixels.  The only issue is that lens profiles computed on a crop-frame body can't reliably be applied for the same lens on a full-frame body because the lens profile from a crop-frame body won't cover the entire full-frame lens image circle.
    So as you're looking for a lens profile just make sure you're using a full-frame one if you have a full-frame or crop-frame camera, and don't try to use a crop-frame one on a full-frame camera.  I'd expect Adobe only computes crop-frame profiles for crop-frame lenses, and uses full-frame camera bodies on full frame lenses, so there shouldn't be a problem.

  • Canon 5D Mark III profile not found in Lens correction filter in PhotoShop CS6

    I'm unable to find a profile for my Canon 5D Mark III within the PS CS6 lens correction filter.  In fact, Canon isn't even available as a camera make option within the Search Criteria box, nor are any canon lenses.  When I click the Search Online button, the prompt reads "No online profiles found".  Thankfully, I have no problem within Lightroom 4 (the Mark III and lenses are recognized)-- however, I'd really like to be able to use the new Adaptive Wide Angle Lens filter within CS6, which needs the camera's EXIF data to function correctly.  I'm using a new iMac OS X.7
    Thanks in advance for any help that you may have to offer.

    So that makes me wonder if Lightroom keeps its own Lens Correction folder and if so,perhaps you can copy its Canon folder to Photoshop CS6's lens correction folder.
    If you still cannot find it,you can create your own custom profile or download it if it's already been posted.
    This article should direct you to the profiler and downloader software. You will need to install Adobe Air to use the Adobe Lens Profile Downloader.

  • Lens correction doesn't work in CS5 Bridge

    Lens Correction in Bridge isn't working properly for me.
    I ran the Lens Correction tool in Bridge and selected "Match best profile" from the profile section.
    The script ran and saved the new files in the proper folder, but didn't produce any lens correction results. I double-checked this by creating a highly distorted lens profile and running the script with that, but it didn't produce any results either. It seems the Lens Correction tool, when accessed through Bridge, isn't working. It does, however, work great when used in Photoshop... just not in Bridge where you can apply it to multiple files.
    Has anyone had any experience with this? Judging from the ancient dialog screen, I'd bet that this feature doesn't get used much.

    Has anyone had any experience with this? Judging from the ancient dialog screen, I'd bet that this feature doesn't get used much.
    Your last remark about popular usage seems to be spot on, never even tried it myself. It seems one of the many needless and bad working options in Bridge that should have been dealt with long time ago but as we all know by now Bridge is neglected by Adobe bean counters and we still are waiting for the miracle...
    Tried your route in Bridge CC (selecting a few files in Bridge / menu tools / Photoshop / Lens Correction) and run the scripts.
    You are right, the files are saved in a separate 'results' folder with the same filename but nothing has changed other then instead having a locked background layer now the dreadful 'layer 0' assigned (dreadful because I have lots of actions working on the layer called 'background' and they refuse to work on 'layer 0', I have to built in a flatten layer command to change it again to background, but this is slightly Off Topic…)
    And indeed,  the same files running in PS lens correction filter do have the correct result.
    You can't use raw or DNG directly in the Bridge script because the result can only be saved as jpg, png, PSD and Tiff.
    Meanwhile you could do the obvious and choose from two options:
    - follow the ACR / Raw -DNG route (preferred because at the start of the process) where  you can select the raw files in filmstrip mode and with select all choose lens correction in ACR then hit OK or save or open).
    - or in case of already converted or saved files create an action (which is nothing more then a recorded script but then very easy) yourself.
    Just open 1 file in PS, then create a new action in the action panel with a proper name. It starts recording and will follow your steps. Apply lens correction with the wanted settings, then hit OK, use flatten layer to return to Background instead of Layer 0, hit save as (choose a proper location because all files will be saved here when running the action) and be sure to not touch or change the file name otherwise each new file will overwrite the previous with the same recorded file name, if you leave it untouched it saves the existing file name in a new location. hit close file and then stop the recording of the action.
    Select a bunch of files in Bridge, choose menu tools / PS / Batch and select the action you want to apply and hit OK.  In case of 100 + files go for coffee, otherwise watch the magic happen…

  • Need Profile for Lens Correction Filter

    I have a Nikon D5000. How do I get the correct lens profile so I can use it in the Lens Correction filter?

    Profiles are not specific to a camera body, they are specific to a lens model and a sensor size (i.e. a profile for one model of lens will work on all the DX crop-sensor Nikon cameras).

  • GoPro Camera Raw Lens Profile settings not working for image sequence in Photoshop/AE/Premiere CS6

    Hey Everyone,
    I'm in need of assistance in either Photoshop CS6, After Effects CS6, or Premiere Pro CS6.  I just installed the trials after seeing Russell Brown demo the GoPro Lens Profile correction feature in Camera Raw.  Basically what I'm looking to do is make adjustments (in Adobe Camera Raw) to a series of still images (shot with the time-lapse mode on the GoPro) and then either export those stills through Photoshop or Bridge to a temporary movie file that will be imported into a timeline (with other video clips), or import the JPG files (with Camera Raw settings) directly into After Effects or Premiere as an image sequence.  The latter would be preferable as it'd avoid the extra step of having to render the intermediate/temporary movie file.
    Right now, my current workflow for GoPro time-lapses is:
              - use Bridge CS4 to do basic color correction on the still images
              - save those as TIF files
              - run the TIF files through a custom script to have Hugin 2012.0.0 (open source pano stitcher) remove the fisheye distortion
              - open the new TIF image sequence into QuickTime Player 7 (Pro)
              - export the image sequence as a QuickTime movie file
              - import the movie file into Premiere Elements 10 to place on a timeline with other video clips (as Premiere Elements can't handle the sequence(s) of thousands of still images without crashing)
    If I can go directly from Bridge to a timeline, it'd save a lot of processing time (and it'd be much nicer to preview the images in Bridge without the fisheye distortion)!
    I can prepare the GoPro JPG files through Adobe Camera Raw in Bridge CS6, though when I go to import the JPEG image sequence into Premiere Pro CS6 or After Effects CS6, none of the Camera Raw settings are applied.  If I export the Camera Raw files in Bridge CS6 as DNG files (a step I'd really prefer to avoid) and then import the DNG image sequence into After Effects CS6, the Camera Raw settings are applied except for the Lens Profile settings -- I can pick other cameras but not the GoPro lens profiles when the DNG image sequence loads in After Effects.  It also appears that once I open the DNG files in After Effects CS6, I can no longer access the GoPro Lens Profile in Adobe Bridge CS6 -- the list changes to the same list I get in After Effects.  Premiere Pro CS6 doesn't let me import the DNG files at all.  I've also tried to import the JPG files (as well as the converted DNG files) into an image sequence in Photoshop CS6, though it doesn't allow me to do so (the Image Sequence checkbox is grayed out after I apply the Camera Raw settings in Bridge).
    There could be an issue going on with different Camera Raw versions.  I didn't have Premiere Pro CS6 installed during my initial testing, though now do notice that the Camera Raw dialog in Bridge CS6 only lets me choose compatibility up to "Camera Raw 7.1 and later" when I choose to export the files as DNG.  I thought Camera Raw 8.2 was an option there a couple days ago when I only had installed Photoshop CS6 and After Effects CS6 (though am not 100% certain).
    Please let me know if there is some workaround to get the GoPro lens profile Camera Raw corrections applied in an image sequence in one of the Adobe CS6 products (without having to export the files as temporary TIF or JPG files out of Camera Raw).  I'd greatly prefer to shorten my current workflow for these files.  (I just updated the CS6 trials and have tested all three programs again though I still get the same results described above.)
    Does Lightroom 5 have any option to export Camera Raw image sequences as movie files (or any other feature that might help in simplifying my current workflow)?  I can't install the trial right now as it's not compatible with OS X 10.6.8.  I'd consider upgrading OS X if I knew Lightroom 5 would do what I need, though am waiting for any potential color profile issues to be resolved in OS X 10.9.
    I can open the image sequence in Photoshop CS6 if no Camera Raw settings are applied and then use the Lens Correction Filter to apply the GoPro Lens Profile settings, though I really prefer the Camera Raw interface in Bridge for tweaking image settings.  As soon as I apply Camera Raw settings to the first image, Photoshop CS6 grays out the image sequence checkbox.
    If there isn't a way to take Camera Raw files straight from Adobe Bridge to a timeline, I may stick with my current workflow using CS4 and see what I can do to better automate some of the steps as the TIF export in Bridge, fisheye distortion removal in Hugin, and render in QuickTime Player all take quite a while.  I won't mind waiting for all the processing if I can set it and check back on it in later the next day when it's fully complete.  Is there a way to have Adobe ExtendScript execute an external shell command (i.e.: a command I could type into the bash shell in Terminal in OS X)?  If not, is there a way to call/run an ExtendScript script from the command line and pass a parameter to it that my custom script could use?
    Thanks in advance,
    Mark

    Can you zip up a few of your GoPro images, upload them to dropbox.com and post a share link, here, so others can experiment with them, or do you mean this issue is global to all camera models?

  • Scale difference between Camera Raw and Lens Correction Filter in CS6

    I have the latest Camera Raw plugin (8.6.0.254). When I open an NEF file from a D800, the resulting image is 4912x7360 pixels, whether I apply distortion correction or not.
    If I load the NEF file, do not apply distortion correction in Camera Raw, but then apply it via the Lens Correction Filter, the image must be rescaled to approximately 4840x7252 (some 98.53%) so that it matches the results of the Camera Raw plugin (minus the missing pixels around all four sides, of course).
    Anyone else notice this (particularly in newer versions of Photoshop)? Is there a way to prevent this cropping? The amount of distortion on the lens (35mm) is minimal and, regardless of that, I would have expected Camera Raw and the Lens Correction filter to output identical images after distortion correction, since the lens profile is the same.

    To see if that can be replicated, we'd need to now the exact version of CS6 you're running (e.g. on Mac you should be on Photoshop CS6 13.0.6) and the exact version of your OS.

  • How can I find Nikon D800 in PS CS5 lens correction filter?

    How can I find Nikon D800 in PS CS5 lens correction filter? I have version 12.0.4 and Camera Raw 6.7.0.339.

    I see your question and wondered about it. 
    This is assuming that you know that in addition to the 18-55 issued with D3000's that there are other lenses in which to invest and with which to exploire.....
    Using  a D800 and CC PS 14.2.1 x64 and latest Camera Raw  8.4.1.200 I opened the lens correction filters.
    There are lens correction tools in Raw for which no body selection is offered, just lens types.  Which lens are you using?
    In CC PS (Upgraded from PS5 or PS6 to CreativeCloud ("CC") PS with nice2 year discount offer from Adobe) there is a separate lens correction filter tool:
    Options/settings
    Manufacturer:  NIKON
    Model Options do not include D800 at this time
    (Options D3, D300s, D3X, D4, & D700) Only the D300s is a crop frame CCD here as opposed to full frame 3, 4, 700, or our 800s.  I would not set the model to any known crop frame (APS-C size CCD)
    Searching adobe forums, it appears that camera body specific entries are only added for known problems. 
    Leaving the model set to Nikon (as opposed to all) allows for selection of specific lenses for a very broad gamut including grails like the OTUS.
    I am guessing that there is no identified lens/camera-body specific peculiarity requiring a specific entry for the D800.  This is something to watch over time and possibly to ask Adobe Directly.
    I am now piqued to know. 

  • Photoshop CS6 lens correction filter error

    My pc crashed, updon reboot I'm unable to run PSCS6 lens correction filter. The error reads "The end of data was reached while reading from a container". The crash occurred while using the lens correction filter, the pc locked up. When I rebooted everything worked fine except the lens correction filter.

    Application-specific questions/problems are best handled in the forum of the application. Here's a link to the Photoshop General forum:

  • Lens Correction Filter Canvas Extension

    Ever since the Lens correction filter was introduced, I have was frustrated by the fact that the part of the image, which gets shifted off-canvas when adjusting the perspective, gets cropped.
    As a workaround, I have made it a habit to first float the background layer, then extend the canvas size all around by ten percent, before entering the Lens Correction Filter dialogue.
    Would it not be a lot neater if this functionality was included/ not needed in the Lens Correction Filter?

    Hi,
    Have you tried turning off the "Auto Scale Image" check box, located right below the automatic correction check boxes?  Using the Vertical/Horizontal Perspective sliders will still crop a tiny bit, but it should be significantly less with Auto Scale Image turned off.

  • Lens Correction Filter

    Actually, in Lens Correction Filter window in Transform section of Custon mode, the Horisontal Perspective slider does absolutely OPPOSITE things than the little pictures around it shows me to do.
    I mean, I turn the slider to the right, but my perspective goes left (it grows up on the right, but the picture tell me thet it will decrease to the right).
    It confuses me all the time.

    Normal and expected behavior.  Well known, too.
    Just convert to 8-bit RGB.
