Lens distortion preset is not there?

Running the latest version of premier CC and in effects under presets the lens distortion effect is no longer there? What happened?

HI Jon, Thank you. I wasn't aware of this. Next time I will try it. This time I ended up ininstalling the program and then reinstalling and it worked fine. For some reason the Lens distortion effects had entirely disappeared. Very strange? Now it's working fine. I will note your suggestion for next time.
Thanks for your help.

Lens distortion presets are missing in Premiere Pro CC 7.2.2

Lens distortion removal folder is missing completely. Can anyone suggest how to fix it? Perhaps there is a way to download those presets separately?

Jim, thanks for your reply. I'm talking about Lens distorition removal forder located in Presets. I believe that they are configs/presets for the Lens Distortion effect located in Distort folder under Video Effects. By the way, distort effects are available to me, but not the presets.
I've found out about the new presets at Lynda - http://www.lynda.com/Premiere-Pro-tutorials/Removing-GoPro-lens-distortion/126763/169090-4 .html
So, my question still stands.

Lens Distortion Removal presets?

I have read that there are specific camera lens distortion removal presets coming to the new version of Premiere Pro CC 2014. I do not see them yet, is this still in development or can i download these presets somewhere on the website? I am looking for GoPro Hero 3 Black lens correction profile specifically.
Thanks!

Yes, I see them now! I had these filters blocking my preset folders options. Thank you Jim

Lens Distortion Removal Presets GoPro Hero4

In Premiere Pro CC I have the following Lens Distortion Removal presets for GoPro:
- Hero2
- Hero3 Black
- Hero3+ Black
I have a GoPro Hero4 Silver. Where and how do I get the presets for that camera?

One option is to use the GoPro Studio software to transcode the GoPro source videos to .avi for PC or .mov for Mac, which makes editing much easier for many systems. With the added benefit of having a check box for Fisheye Removal, so clip is "ready to edit" in Premiere and not worry about it at that point.
Thanks

Lens Distortion correction not working on tonemapped jpg files

I have a series of photos exported from Lightroom 2 that I HDR tonemapped in Photomatix. Unfortunately after a disk failure I do not have the original RAW files and only have the 100% jpg saved tonemapped files from photomatix.
Now that Lightroom 3 is out I wanted to try some lens distortion correction on them. I imported them and immediately noticed after enabling the lens profile corrections and choosing my lens that although chromatic arberration and vignetting works there is no effect at all with the distortion correction! Even when I slide the slider from one side to the other absolutely nothing changes.
I tried it on other raw files and it works fines. I tried it on jpgs that I have that have not been combined and tonemapped in photomatix and they work fine. It is only the jpgs created from photomatix.
Is there something about the exif data that I am not considering or any other explanation as to why the photomatix jpgs won't take any distortion correction? thanks

If it's working for other jpg's, (and I though it didn't work on jpgs, so who knows?) then it does sound like the photomatrix program is wiping out the exif information that is needed.
Did you try using a viewer to look at the exif info, both before and after, to compare? Maybe there is a setting (in photomatrix) that you are missing when you save data?
Sorry, don't know photomatrix, so just offering generic ideas in the hopes it sheds light..
Cheers!

Lens Corrections in Bridge. Lens Distortion not in Bridge.

I can open Bridge without opening Photoshop;
also, I can edit CR in Bridge without opening
Photoshop CS4.
Cmd+R puts images into Raw editing.
There is a Lens Corrections feature in
Bridge which has no access to a Lens
Distortion control in Bridge.
Opening up several hundred CR's in Photoshop
halts my productivity immediately.
Lens Distortion should be one of the very first
accessible tools in Bridge CR. If it is available
in Bridge, where is it?
Next question: Is Lens Distortion available in CS5 Bridge?
Befuddled.

Can you clearify a point for me? I always assumed that there was one ACR and
it could be acceessed from Bridge or from Photoshop.
Hi Curt
It is correct that there can only be one version of ACR, however both Bridge
and PS can use them together at the same time. Don't know how but it works
as long as I can remember and I have no reason to assume it does not so in
Windows.
Using the command open in Bridge or double click on thumbs opens the files
in ACR through Photoshop. Open in Camera Raw or cmd + R opens the files in
ACR using Bridge.
Open files using choose with lets you choose all the applications that are
capable of opening the file. (Raw files have limited options of course -due
to the need for a Raw converter- but for instance a jpg file has a lot of
options depending on how many applications you have installed on your
machine)
In the Bridge prefs you can also check the option to open Raw files in ACR
Bridge with double click on a file (by default turned off).
Another option is to use right click mouse menu on selected files and then
you can also choose from the above ways to open files.
There is a but in this, Although you can use them both together they can't
use the same function in both apps to do it in PS at the same time, you have
to wait for one task to be finished.
Hence the small difference in both ACR windows, in PS the 'Open' button
bottom right is active. Using ACR in Bridge the 'Done' button is active.
But if you have a big session and start using ACR in PS and make your
settings in filmstrip mode on multiple files you then can open them in PS.
This can take some time so meanwhile you can switch to Bridge and start work
on a new batch applying settings in ACR Bridge. After you have finished this
session hit done and this applies the new ACR settings to the files in
Bridge, the thumbs will be update.
Meanwhile you can switch to PS and finishing the job inhere. Then again go
to Bridge and open the latest corrected files directly in PS using the shift
key to bypass the ACR window (you already had the settings applied,
remember). If you wish you can then again choose a new job in ACR Bridge
while PS opens the files, and so on and so on.
Depending on your machine specs this can be done without delay (fast machine
with enough RAM). You can also choose to save files which will provide you
with a waiting list that functions in the background. Also now you can use
the other app to work in.
Nice, isn't it??
Only downside is that you won't have an excuse for a coffee break, but as
they say, You can't have them all...

I just made the switch to mac. I am have installed all the new PS6 CC and bridge and I am now trying to add some presets to my ACR but when I search for the folder to place them it is not there. From what I researched it says it should be under camera library/application support/adobe/camera raw/settings but I can only get to library/application support/adobe/ and then there are two different camera raw options I have checked both and there are not settings folder. If anyone can help me please thanks

Apple most likely has the same poor taste that Microsoft does when it come to defaults. Microsoft likes to hide things like settings, preset, folders etc from normal users think the dumb or something else. If Apple also hide things you will have to make some system setting changes that will allow Finder to do it job and find it for you.

Lumia 920 front camera lens distortion (not dust)

Hi community,
Have a next issue - all pictures/video from front camera are distorted on top (I can see that upper edge of camera is just covered by glass curve - so the effect I'm getting is quite annoying). I've seen couple of videos on youtube made by 920 front camera - everything is OK there. Please see attached couple of images. Is anybody else having this issue?
Solved!

It was physical defect (so have no idea how your reset would help solving it) Got replacement from my carrier. Glass is flat this time - no curves on edges. So no "lens" distortion effect. Please see photos of the front camera and gorilla glass before and after replacement.

Lens distortion correction in Premiere CS6?

I'm trying to correct the distortion caused by a wide-angle lens in Premiere CS6. From what I can tell, there is no filter or transform / distort feature within Premiere itself. I followed the steps in this tutorial to open the MPEG4 in Photoshop, apply the lens correction filter, and then export the video again to be re-imported to Premiere. http://podcasts.creativecow.net/adobe-premiere-tutorials-podcast/correcting-lens-distortio n
However this tutorial is for CS5. I am seeing no adjustment or filter layer in my layers panel, as it appears in the tutorial. When I go to export the video, it seems the Adaptive Wide Angle filter or the Lens Correction filter has only applied to a single frame of the whole clip. Bummer.
Any other suggestions for fixing lens distortion in Premiere?
Thanks!

Both these replies are a bit rude and unhelpful. I am editing in Premiere, and I am not very familiar with it. The question is about how to fix lens distortion in Premiere. Maybe there's a way to do this that I'm not aware of...? That's why I asked the question! There's nothing about it that I could find in the forums. The only fix I found didn't work—which was to use Photoshop *integrated with Premiere*. And two people tell me to use AEFX without pointing me in any directions of how to do that. Useless.
Anyway, I found some information that *was* helpful. This tutorial demonstrates that one critical step was missing from the prior tutorial, which is to convert the video layer to a smart object before applying the effect:
http://www.protechreviewgroup.com/tutorialsinformation/tutorial-fisheye-correction-in-phot oshop-for-gopro-hero-hd/
The same person provided a tutorial on how to do this in AEFX:
http://www.protechreviewgroup.com/tutorialsinformation/tutorial-fisheye-lens-correction-in -after-effects-for-gopro-hero-hd/
Now that these steps are taken, I have to take the footage back into Premiere. It's a workflow question. Other video editing software has this kind of stuff built-in to the effects panel.

Adobe Premiere Pro CC for mac - Lens Distortion

I do not have lens distortion option in video effects. Apparently this is not included in mac version of Premiere Pro CC. Where can I get this plugin? Or is there another way of doing this? Any help would be hugely appreciated. Thanks.

Take your Time Machine and rewind your system to before you installed CC. Problem solved. Specifically, rewind your HD/Library/Application Support/Adobe and user/Library/Application Support/Adobe folders and see if that fixes it. It fixed a wonky AE CS6 I had earlier this week (completely unrelated to CC)
Keep with CS6 until the first updates to CC roll out.
(And don't ever upgrade a critical app mid-project. I know you know that's a huge professional no-no. You had a system that worked just fine.)

Exposure and lens distortion slightly different after photoshop edit

I'm pretty new to Lightroom and Photoshop, I have a pretty good understanding of Lightroom but not much with Photoshop yet. I opened a photo that I edited the way I want including lens correction, exposure, etc. from lightroom into photoshop, did some editing with the patch tool to fill in some bare grass area on an exterior shot, then saved photoshop file as psd file in photoshop, then closed file and went back to lightroom, the photo seams to have a slightly different lens distortion not the way I want and different exposure compared to my original edited raw image. Why is this happening? why does photoshop slightly change the lens distortion?

Is LR applying lens distortion, again, by default, perhaps also vignetting correction which would change the exposure especially in the corners?
Most lens profiles that contain information about geometric and vignetting corrections are for raw files only, but a few also have non-raw versions. it is possible that your LR defaults say to apply lens corrections whenever a file is imported and for the lens you're using there are both raw and non-raw lens profiles.
A simple way to tell if this is occurring is to go to the Lens Corrections / Profile tab and see if Enable Profile Corrections is checked or not, and if it is, turn it off and see if the image is more the same as the original raw + your PS patch work.

Perspective correction and Lens distortion removal tools

Hi,
as a photographer who aspires to create pictures with best possible quality available to me I am very bothered that my primary image editing tool is lacking Perspective correction and Lens distortion removal tools. I believe that there should be no questions if such tools are necessity or so to speak additional enhancements. It is eating the disk space as well having multiple copies clutters the projects if these functions are available only via plug-ins or additional external tools.
How are you guys handling such issues?
For a moment I was thinking to convert all the files through Nikon Capture NX2 before importing to Aperture but that again is counter effective in long run. Aperture is built to work with Raw files and large tif files take longer to process between various programs and I would loose all the benefits of having Raw file at all.

It would be nice to have those functions added to the next version.
I always use the following page to select the product I want to provide feedback on:
http://www.apple.com/feedback/
Note - due to the number of lenses and cameras, this would be a huge task and the end result may not include a lot of older lenses which really need the correction.
I use PT Lens as a plug-in inside of Aperture for the most part (although I do have PS CS5 and DxO Pro 6 for situations where I want something different).
As you said, the downside is that you end up with a TIFF (from inside Aperture) or a processed file needing to be import into Aperture.

Perspective/lens distortion correction

About the only thing I ever have to go out of LR2 to do is correct for perspective or for lens distortions (esp. on wide angle lenses). I know this might not be an easy thing to fit in the interface, but it'd be very useful. Especially if you can set it up to do a stored lens distortion correction for a given lens at a given focal lens (+ maybe focus distance).
-Lars

I hope y'all don't mind if I think aloud a little more here.
We've been talking about perspective correction and lens distortion correction as if they were just about the same. They aren't.
Lens distortion correction is a fairly complex warp, but one that is completely determined by the lens and focal length (please corect me if I'm wrong). The main use of it would be to correct for the lens defects, not to create an artistic effect (like CA repair). It could therefore very reasonably be done as a preparation step, as with the Olympus cameras that actually store some correction information. It would be of relatively low user value to be able to change it later, and it would be much harder to implement.
Perspective correction is most definitely a user-driven correction. Not only does LR not stand a chance of figuring out what to do automatically, there would also be many cases where you'd want to correct in one dimension but not another, correct somewhat less that 100%, or in other ways fiddle with the amount of correction. Fortunately, it is a much simpler correction, merely the application of a small transformative matrix. Unlike lens distortion correction, it doesn't turn circles into strange wobbly shapes, but merely into ovals.
Let's take a look at the local adjustments: Crop, rotate, red-eye, spot removal, graduated filter and adjustment brush.
Crop would be well-nigh impossible to mix in with lens distortion correction, another reason to have the correction applied first. With regards to perspective, it should behave more or less like it does towards rotation.
Rotation can actually be done internally using the same operations that perspective correction would, but should probably still be separate in the interface.
Red-eye and spot removal both operate on horizontal-vertical ovals (restricted ovals for spot removal). These would be awful with user-adjusted lens distortion correction, even more reason to have that be an initial step. Perspective correction would stretch them somewhat. What happens when the user makes a dust spot fix, then fixes the perspective, then attempts to adjust the dust spot fix? We end up with the same situation as with vignetting: That there are pre- and post-crop versions. This distinction would now have to extend to pre- and post- crop+rotate+perspective adjustments. Obviously, you'd also want to be able to spot remove based on the corrected image, and it'd be strange to have a tool that's bent. It may be necessary to separate out dust spot removal from "subject matter removal" (including red-eye), as dust spotting should always be before perspective correction.
Graduated filter was really the thing that convinced me that the two corrections need to be split. Applying lens distortion correction after graduated filter would lead to a bent 'horizon line', a very bad thing indeed. Fortunately, it would be fairly resistant to perspective correction, though not entirely: If the horizon does not follow the perspective correction axis, the outer lines ought to tilt together. Probably overkill, though.
We already have an example of a similar situation: Red-eye removal and rotating. Try making a red-eye correction, then rotating the picture sharply. The red-eye oval will stay in the same position, even though that moves it from where it was supposed to be. I guess graduated filters could behave similarly.
The adjustment brushes are probably the simplest: Since they're already amorphous shapes, they can "simply" be bent and distorted along with the corrections and still make as much sense afterwards. Except if you want to use them to correct lens errors, but I don't know how often you'd want to do that.
Perhaps distortion correction and pre-crop vignetting should belong together. They would certainly interact.
That's my $0.02 plus inflation.

Lens Distortion effect missing in Premiere Pro CS6

Hi,
I recently purchased a Phantom VIsion 2 and the recorded material needs a bit of a fisheye removal and I read on several forums it's best to use the lens distortion effect found in Effects- Distort in Adobe but it's not in my list, other effects are. Is there something I need to do to get these effects? I tried reactivating the products but all works fine except for this feature..

In CS6 I think its Windows only.

Panamoric stitch - Lens distortion problem

hello amazing artists there,
am facing problems while 'stitching' the panaromic photos that i shot. basically, Phtoshop's File>Automate>Photomerge and Edit>Auto Align/Blend Layers works good, but FAIL on the LENS DISTORTION.
i had tried to correct it with Filter>Lens Correction, but still not getting perfect result.
Please see the attached image for the results, were you can see the building looks bent. Please check/download the source images from http://www.prashanthvfx.com/130330_adobe_stitch.html.
Any solution?

I think that if you follow the concepts in this video, you should be able to get good results using Adaptive Wide Angle.
(Russell Brown explains things far better than i can)
http://tv.adobe.com/watch/the-russell-brown-show/a-detailed-look-at-adaptive-wide-angle/
Anyway, i started by using the settings below in File>Automate>Photomerge and then when the merge was complete, i did Shift+Ctrl+Alt+E (Shift+Cmd+Option+E on a mac)
to merge the layers into a new layer for the adaptive wide angle. (Layer 1)
The result:
After using some of the same techniques shown in the video:
