Lens Lists in Lens Correction Lightroom 5 in Mac

I have a long list of lenses in Lightroom 5 on my PC but with the Mac there is very limited list for Nikon. None of my lenses appear in this on MacSame version. Can I download an updated list into the menu?

Hi Butch07179198,
You could try removing the Preferences File/s. Look here for instructions: http://helpx.adobe.com/lightroom/kb/preference-file-locations-lightroom-41.html
If that does not help, try removing the .lrdata file from your catalog folder and rebuild previews.
Hope that Helps!

Lens correction Lightroom vs DxO Viewpoint

Does anyone know if Lightroom's lens correction is any better than that of Viewpoint 2 (or 2.5)? I am trying to decide whether I need Viewpoint to do lens correction on my Sony a5100 with the 16-50 kit lens. The lens produces a lot of barreling distortion especially at wide angle. Is viewpoint necessary or will the lens correction in Lightroom 5.7 do the job adequately. Both software programs support the camera and lens combination. Thanks.

It's best to download Lightroom and try it for yourself.
You can use it free for 30 days from the date of download.

Lens correction profiles LR3.4 Mac

I use a mac.
I shoot raw.
I created lens correction profiles for my camera and a few lenses. I uploaded them to Adobe. The lens corrections show up in Adobe Camera Raw but not in Lightroom. ACR "looks" for the .lcp files in the Library/Application Support/Adobe/Camera Raw/Lens Profiles/1.0
Where does Lightroom look for the .lcp files? Or does it use them a all? There is a large list of supported lenses in the dropdown menu, just not the ones I created.

QUOTING: There is a second Lens Profiles Default folder as well.
Where is this elusive second folder? I put copies of the profile in the /Downloaded folder as wel, but Lightroom still doesn't see them.

Lens corrections temporarily disabling other adjustments

I have recently noticed something strange with Lightroom. Normally, I work my way down the Develop module making basic adjustments, using the various tools, and so on; the last thing I do is Upright or Manual lens corrections. However, I apply Lens profiles at the very beginning (because it makes a difference). Recently I noticed that when I apply Upright or Manual Lens corrections, Lightroom seems to temporarily disable any other corrections, apply the lens correction (which always seems to take forever), and reapplies the other corrections. I found this out after noticing minor black and white clipping areas temporarily reappear on a photo I had corrected with an adjustment brush while applying a Manual Lens correction.
I find this behaviour odd and do not know if it has any impact on any other corrections like adjustment brush correction (in this case I started wondering if Lightroom readjusts the adjustment brush area or not).

Supported lens corrections profile not listed in Lightroom 3.2

I have installed the Lightroom 3.2 update, which lists support for the "Canon EF 50mm f/1.8 II" lens. I've shot a number of photos with this lens (using a Canon T1i) and loaded them into Lightroom. In the metadata for the photos, the lens appears as "EF50mm f/1.8 II".
Within Lightroom's "Lens Corrections" section, the "Auto" option reports "Unable to locate a matching profile automatically." I've manually searched the list of Canon lenses, and it's not on the list.
In the folder
/Library/Application Support/Adobe/CameraRaw/LensProfiles/1.0/Canon/
I see a file corresponding to this lens
Canon EOS 5D Mark II (Canon EF 50mm f1.8 II) - RAW.lcp
but it's listed with only the one specific body.
I've tried manually installing the Camera Raw 6.2 update, but it reports "Update is not applicable." Given the file listed above, I suspect it was already installed.
In the release notes, which listed Canon EF 50mm f/1.8 II lens, it didn't mention that support was limited to only a certain camera body. Could someone please help me? Thanks!

My assumption that I should be able to find the lens within Lightroom came from the release notes at
http://blogs.adobe.com/lightroomjournal/2010/08/lightroom-3-2-and-came ra-raw-6-2-now-available.html
rather than the filename of the profile that I found. As far as I can see, the release notes don't specify that it only applies to raw images.
I agree that the release notes could have been a clearer in terms of what was provided. I can also appreciate why the profiles for JPEG were not included, namely time constraints.
After converting the original raw images to JPEG it would have taken an hour or so to run the calibration images for these "new" profiles through the lens profile creator application. Following a number of requests I did this myself for the dozen or so profiles that I had already uploaded to the Adobe lens profile server. That was a days work for me, for the Adobe engineer(s) working on all of the new profiles it would probably have taken a fair number of days/weeks.

LightRoom Lens Correction ... huge list (of some of which I have never heard!), but still no mention of Zuiko (Olympus) lenses in the drop-down, even in my 4th update: version 5.6. Anyone know why Olympus has been ostracised in this application?

I am now using a new Nikon, but I still have thousands of images captured with my (very good) Olympus E500, but still frustrated that its lenses do not appear in the drop-down list in the lens correction module ... not even in the latest update, version 5.6

What camera? Is it a mirrorless? Most of those have lens profiles that are built-in and always on so there’s nothing in the list.

Lens correction profile for the Canon 18-135 STM lens in Lightroom 5 ?

How or where can I get the lens correction profile for the Canon 18-135 STM lens in Lightroom 5 ? In effect he is not available in my list of correction lens so my lightroom is up to date apparently :/
Thanks in advance for answer.

There are two types of Lens profiles - raw and JPEG. It looks like you are trying to process a JPEG image and Adobe has only provided a raw lens profile for the 18-135mm IS STM lens.
You have four options:
1) Check for available lens profile using the Adobe Lens Profile Downloader. I checked and a JPEG lens profile is NOT available for the 18-135mm lens.
2) Follow the procedure outlined by Steve Sprengel in this post:
http://feedback.photoshop.com/photoshop_family/topics/lr_5_lens_profile_not_applied_for_jp g_captures_only_for_raw_captures
More detailed instructions here for a Pentax lens example:
http://www.pentaxforums.com/forums/post-processing-articles/176761-creating-adobe-lens-cor rection-profiles-jpgs-raw-ones.html
This allows using the available raw lens profile with JPEG images. To my knowledge Canon DSLR cameras do not apply distortion correction to JPEG images, so the raw profile should work well. You can check this by shooting raw+JPEG and comparing the two images inside LR
3) Create you own lens profile using the Adobe Lens Profile Creator. (A complicated process, but it can be done!).
4) Start shooting in raw mode or raw + JPEG mode, which will allow you to extract the most benefit from LR's processing controls.

Canon powershot G15 lens correction profile lightroom 4.4

has anyone built a lens correction profile for canon g15 powershot? i am new to lightroom and can't see this camera listed in the lens correction list although my pentax DSLR is there. any help gratefully appreciated - i am very new to lightroom so any help in idiot proof language greatly appreciated.

Yes redkaz,
If you go to the main lightroom forum page, on the right hand side, there is a Resources section.
Press "submit a feature request or bug report". There you can submit a feature request, and vote up others.
please let me know if you have any other questions,

Why all the micro4/3 (Panasonic and Olympus) lenses are missing in Lightroom lens corrections?

Is there a reason why all the micro4/3 lenses (panasonic, Leica and Olympus) are missing as lens corrections in all Lightroom versions?

They are not missing.
Within the last year or two many cameras do their own lens corrections before writing the JPG or even displaying the image on the back of the camera or in the electronic view finder, so Adobe does the same thing: the lens profiles are built into the camera raw engine and always applied. It’s confusing because cameras didn’t used to do this and Adobe didn’t used to do this, so we have the situation of older cameras having lens profiles you had to select from the dropdown lists, while newer cameras don’t require this. Of course removable-lens cameras still have this situation, but many/most recent P&S cameras have built-in lens corrections.
The Camera Raw plug-in for Photoshop actually indicates when a built-in profile is being used, but LR does not, yet.

Lens Correction won't list my camera and lens

Why won't the Lens Correction filter recognize my camera and lens, which is shown in the metadata below the correction window? I had been using the venerable Canon 5D Mk II and now the Mk III. For images taken with the III it doesn't even list Canon in the Camera dropdown -- too new? Even with the II, I had to choose the camera manually and then choose the lens from a very tedious list, and had no indication if it was using the focal length in the case of a zoom, or the aperture.
I do strongly prefer to do this correction in Camera Raw or Lightroom, and realize it needs to be done on an uncropped image to be accurate. I'm probably missing something, but why even present it as an auto correction if it can't use the metadata? Why not just limit it to the manual correction?

Lens Correction within Photoshop - CS5 E and CS6 E- Shows camera/lens info for the 5DMkIII in the lower left hand corner, but nothing in the drop down menu.
CS5:
CS6:
But with both CS5 E and CS6E, it's the reverse here. Bottom left corner doens't show camera information, but I can select it manually from the drop down list. Also, I can select the other items just about the drop down menus list.
CS5
CS6
Sorry for appearing to post duplicate images, but they aren't. It's screen captures from both CS5 Extended and CS6 Extended.
Anything from Canon 7D and earlier (including most of the Canon Powershots, but not the G1X), I get all the options in the drop down menus on the right. Canon 5DMkIII and Olyumpus OMD EM5, nothing.
I hope that's documented enough.

Adding Nikon D750 to Camera Model list in CS6 Lens Correction (Windows 7 64Bit)

How do I add Nikon D750 to the CS6 Lens Correction filter's Camera Model list? (Windows 7 64Bit) I'm running ACR8.7. By default I get the adjustments for the correct lens but with a D3x body. Using the search online tool doesn't find anything.

User lens profiles in program folders will be ignored, so the first four you list, starting with Program Files and ProgramData are only for Adobe-supplied profiles for the particular version of product you're using. There are .lcp files in those program folders, the ones without Downloaded in the path, anyway, but they have to be Adobe profiles. Each version of Camera Raw and Lightroom knows exactly what profiles to expect and will ignore any others. A few years ago that was not the case, but it is, now.
The last path, beginning with Users and ending with Downloaded is where user-supplied .lcp files should go.
If you want to zip up a profile and a raw file you feel goes with it, and upload to http://www.dropbox.com and share a public download link, here, then maybe others can verify if those profiles work for them or not.

The lens correction option in Lightroom 5 is for the Tamron 28-75mm lens, rather than the correct Tamron 18-270mm, even though it's correct in the Library metadata. How can I fix this?

Are you shooting RAW or JPG or some of both?
When you say it won't let you change it, does that mean there are no lens profiles at all, or no lens profiles that match your lens? If you set Auto or Default you can select any lens you want from the list of manufacturers and profiles and then the Setup says Custom. Of course this lens may not be the correct lens, but saying you cannot change it suggests there are no manufacturers or lenses listed on the dropdowns.
Most lens profiles are for RAW only, so if you shoot a mixture of RAW and JPG then for the JPGs the lens profile may not exist. If you are enabling Lens Profiles and have Auto or Default set and it chooses the wrong one then it may just be choosing the top one in the list for Canon if the specific profile doesn't exist for JPGs.
If you are shooting raw and the profile does exist then you should be able to correct the situation: In the list select the correct profile, then choose Setup: Save New Lens Profile Defaults, and select Default from the Setup instead of Auto and it should pick the correct lens every time. Assuming it does do that, then you can set Enable Lens Profiles = checked and Setup: Default and set those as your new Lightroom Defaults and it should pick the right lens.
If you are shooting JPG then the lens profile may well not exist and there's nothing you can do about that except not shoot JPG. If you feel like it you can hack a raw profile to be a jpg profile and put that hacked copy in the user-lens-profile area and LR will see it.

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.

Lightroom 5.2 is not identifying my sigma 35 mm 1.4 for lens correction anymore.

Lightroom 5.2 is not identifying my sigma 35 mm 1.4 for lens correction anymore. It was working fine last week. Any ideas what's happening?

Indeed the pictures I'm looking at now are Jpeg. My other canon lenses are picked up for profile correction though but the sigma 35 isn't. Thanks a lot! I thought something was wrong somewhere but it all makes sense now.

Lightroom - Lens Correction - Lens Manufactuer unknown

I have a Canon Rebel XTi and shoot in Raw. I have 3 Tamron lenses - a 10-24, 17-50 and 18-270.
I thought I'd try out the lens correction profile for my 10-24 for a few pics, but when invoking the option, it was unable to determine the len manufacturer. Though as soon as I selected 'Tamron' it then knew which lens I was using.
Should my metadata have capture the lens manufactuer?
Is there something I am missing?
Given they are all Tamron - can I set some sort of default so I don't have to select Tamron for every picture?
Thanks!

If you cannot get the right lens profile assigned using the Set Default method described in earlier posts (for example, if two different lenses that you use are identified exactly the same by LR's reading of the image metadata, so that it cannot distinguish them automatically) then it can be helpful to record the manual assignment of a given lens profile, into a Develop preset for easier application to images in the future.
To reiterate, it is enough that Lr's lens detection operates as a unique identifier, that can cause the particular correction profile to be used which you have stipulated; the actual lens description does not strictly need to be correct for the lens, in order for this to happen automatically, per image, at import or subsequently.
So a general Develop preset or default which turns on lens corrections just needs to activate the profile checkbox, and in the Profile: selector, show "Default". Then LR uses whatever it has been told is the right default for each Lens ID encountered, which may derive from its originally installed list, or else from what the user has later assigned.
A specific preset applying a particular lens profile for cases where auto detection doesn't work, will instead apply this explicitly, set as "Manual".
For example, I use some older, pre-digital Pentax lenses which have no ID chip, and report to LR as just "A series lens" or else "K or M lens" - because all the camera can do, is detect whether or not these older lenses have an auto aperture. So with those, I can use LR to filter them down by focal length (prime lenses), to help me rapidly apply a Develop preset which picks out the correct profile for each individual lens. The camera asks me for the focal length whenver it detects a legacy-mount lens has been fitted, so that it can correctly apply shake reduction, so that info is at least recorded against each image. But: most of the time, I use only one A series lens and only one M series lens, so I have LR set to "presume" the A/28 profile for the former, and the M/135 profile for the latter, unless told otherwise. I only have to intervene as described in the exceptional case, when I know I have used some other lens sharing the same class of legacy mount.
The same principles apply when third-party lens makers use ambiguous Lens IDs even for modern chipped lenses, where these codes may span across multiple, different lens models indiscriminately.
